MANSION
General
Mohammadu Buhari was reportedly
shocked when he visited Imo State
Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorcha at his
Spibath N1 Billion Presidential Mansion in
Umuodu Mbieri in Mbaitoli Local
Government of Imo State recently.
General Buhari
had shortly after
the Presidential
elections on
March 28, paid a
visit to Governor
Okorocha in Imo
State as part of
his “Thank You”
tour.
Okorocha who personally received the
President-elect at the Owerri Airport
alongside members of his cabinet and
chieftains of the APC on April 7, drove
General Buhari to his Umuodu Mbieri, his
hometown.
On arrival at Umuodu Mbieri where his
palatial mansion is located, a shocked
General Buhari was said to have asked his
host “is this the Government House”?
An excited Okorocha, beaming with smiles,
according to a source who was on the
entourage, was said to have responded,
“no, this is my house.”
Okorocha’s response according to the
source who does not want to be named,
immediately brought a mean smile from
the retired General who said, “kai, you are
a criminal.”
The President-Elects response elicited
laughter but the source told
us that General Buhari
would not want to be associated with such
opulence in his administration.
“This is something GMB does not want. He
has openly and secretly told some APC
members that he will personally deal with
any member of the Party who lives above
his means and he is serious about it.”
Governor Okorocha who allegedly boasts
to visitors and members of his cabinet that
his mansion is finer than Aso Rock
Presidential Villa, was reported to have
completed the Presidential Mansion which
has a Ranch, a big estate and multiple
buildings within three years.
The Imo Governor allegedly and forcefully
acquired the 10 hectares of land using
Government powers and selling same to
himself. Sources said he completed the
Presidential mansion within the first three
years of his tenure and most times
performs official businesses there.
A Lebanese Construction firm whose name
could not be ascertained before going to
press built the sprawling mansion at a cost
estimated at N1 Billion.
