BREAKING NEWS: My life is in danger -----Former Imo State Governor

Former Governor of Imo State, Mr Ikedi Ohakim,  has again raised the alarm that his life is in danger. Ohakim, in a statement issued at the weekend, said it has become imperative for him to alert the world about plans by some unscrupulous persons to destroy him.
The former governor said apart from dragging him to  the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on spurious allegations, some persons have equally  cloned his voice in order to set him on a collision course with the federal authorities, especially the leadership of the security agencies.
On his “purported arrest” by the EFCC a fortnight ago, Ohakim  stated that he never at any time evaded invitations by the anti-graft agency,  noting that he has no reason  to evade interrogation by any anti-corruption agency in Nigeria, or anywhere in the world,  regarding his four years tenure as governor.
He said he had gone to  the EFCC’s office on June 17  to ask for more time to appear before it in view of his health challenges.
According to him, “on the incident of Thursday, June 18, 2015, I would submit, with the highest sense of responsibility, that the drama was unnecessary. I never evaded invitation by the agency. This can be corroborated by the statement made by the commission’s spokesman, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, as quoted in the media. It means that by the time the spokesman made that statement on Wednesday, June 17, 2015, I was not yet a subject for arrest; notwithstanding the fact that I was at the headquarters of the commission the same Wednesday, June 17, 2015 to submit a letter asking for more time in view of my health challenges; and which letter was duly acknowledged.”
He said: “What is playing out began with a petition against me to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) by the same desperate politician in my state. The petition was written by a group he fabricated that goes by the name, Alliance For Good Governance. Those who are conversant with the politics of Imo State would recall that it was this same group that constituted itself into a vicious gang-up against my administration. It was this group, the Alliance For Good Governance, that sold the lie that I molested a Catholic Priest in Imo State.
“It was the same group that carried out the failed public demonstration against me in front of the EFCC headquarters in Abuja,” he said.
