Okorocha: The Evil I Feared In PDP Has Befallen Me 10 Times In APC

Published

on

Rochas Okorocha, governor of Imo state, says the evil he feared in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been haunting him since he joined the ruling APC

Speaking at an interactive session with journalists in Abuja, the governor said he remains a staunch member of the APC despite efforts to “frustrate him out of the party”. He accused Adams Oshimhole, national chairman of the APC, and some other leaders of working with INEC to ensure he does not get his certificate of return as the “duly elected senator.”

“The evil I feared in the PDP has befallen me ten times in the APC. Last week, I wrote a letter to INEC for the first time myself, informing INEC of their wrongdoings and illegal actions taken by INEC to withhold my certificate on mere allegations of duress which was never founded, neither was there any committee set up to investigate the matter,” Okorocha said.

How I Was Arrested By My Own Men Without Them Knowing I was the Commissioner of Police – MD Abubakar

Published

on

When I was commissioner of police in Lagos State, I took my job very seriously, especially on Saturdays.
One morning, instead of waiting for my usual 10 a.m. start, I woke up at 6 a.m. for an unannounced inspection.

Driving myself, I decided to check on officers along Herbert Macaulay Road. At a checkpoint, a young constable stopped me and asked:

> “Young man, where are you going with your father’s car?”

He demanded my papers and ID. I said my name was Mohammed and asked to see his ID first — he had none. He called their sergeant, who also had no ID but insisted we head to Yaba Police Station.

At the station, parking was full except the DPO’s spot. I parked there. The constable protested but I kept quiet.

Inside, they took me to an ASP wearing shorts at work. He told me to come in. I refused, saying he couldn’t interrogate me in casual clothes. He tried pulling me in, I pulled him back. When he finally looked closely, shock covered his face.

An elderly man in the station went to check the photo wall… saw my face there… and jumped out the window to escape. Soon, whispers spread:

> “This is the CP.”

Panic broke out — the ASP in shorts also escaped through the window.

Later, I was told the DPO, ASP, and the officers were detained awaiting my orders.

What upset me wasn’t the arrest — it was the lack of discipline and professionalism:

Officers without ID cards stopping citizens.

An ASP doing official duty in casual home wear.

That day proved to me that true leadership isn’t about sitting in an office. You must go out, see things for yourself, and make sure justice and discipline are upheld at every level.
