The governorship candidate of the Labour Party for the November 11 governorship election in Imo State, Athan Achonu, has debunked the

speculation that the state governor, Hope Uzodimma, bankrolled the primary election which produced him as the LP candidate.

“I am not a thief, and I can’t be bought. I am in court with the government, and I have won the case. Obey simple court order, he cannot. He is governor because of a court order and he cannot obey simple court orders. I bought 60 % of Imo Hotels and he has refused to obey the court order to return my property and to pay me N100 million judgement cost.

“In my Akuruoulo, I have advocated for the establishment of vigilantes in all LGAs in the state. That is visible on my billboards everywhere. In America, they have sheriffs and policing up to rural levels. That’s why governors are asking for community policing but because of the level of corruption that is not possible yet.
