Rochas Okorocha, Imo West Senator,
has described himself as the most highly misunderstood person in Nigeria,
saying that no governor, past or present in Imo State has been able to beat his
record of achievements.
Okorocha, who was the immediate
past governor of Imo State, anchored his claim on the feedback he gets from
people who define him differently.
The lawmaker spoke on Channels
Television programme, Newsnight.
Okorocha insisted that no
governor past or present has been able to do one-tenth of the projects he
embarked on during his tenure.
He said: “I wish you can meet the
governor of Imo State (Emeka Ihedioha) and ask that Rochas said what he has
done is not up to one-tenth of what I have done, or other governors put
together have done.
“The first international cargo
airport in Imo state, I built it and it was adjudged the best in the country by
FAAN.
“I built 30 hospitals, some of
them completed, while most are not completed, but they have all the roofs,
tiled, except equipping; I built one of the best state high courts, the best
prison, the best police headquarters
“I know my nature, I am highly
misunderstood in this country, and some people define me from different angles.
If I do one-tenth of what the governor is doing there, the whole world will
hear about it.”
