Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, on Monday described
the Igbos as “the most truthful, committed and trust -worthy people but often
misunderstood in the country.’’
Speaking when he received the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen.
Tukur Buratai, in Government House, Owerri, Okorocha said that Imo had
witnessed tremendous progress under his leadership.
He described Imo as as “one of the safest states’’ in
Nigeria, where there was no more kidnapping, armed robbery, cultism and baby
factory syndrome.
He attributed the relative peace and security in the state
to the efforts of the security agencies, especially the Nigerian army.
He commended the military for the successes being recorded
in the fight against insurgency and terrorism in the North East.
He noted that such successes had not been achieved in Syria
and other parts of the world battling terrorism.
Okorocha also commended the army for the “Exercise Crocodile
Smile” and newly introduced “Exercise Python Dance” in the South-South and
South-East zone.
