The immediate past Imo state governor, Senator Rochas Okorocha has been arrested for daring Governor Hope Uzodimma to reopen the Royal Palm Estate sealed by the state government.
Accompanied by his son-in-law, Uche Nwosu, the former governor broke the keys to recover the estate belonging to his wife, Nkechi when loyalists to the state government, infuriated by the ex-governor’s action, confronted them in a clash that left one person injured.
The Imo state government had on Friday recovered the Royal Palm Estate along Akachi road.
The seizure, according to the team led by the state Commissioner for Lands, Enyinnaya Onuegbu, was in compliance with directive of Imo state gazette on the report of the Judicial Commission of Enquiry on recovery of Lands and other related matters.
