Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, has alleged that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is inciting the House of Assembly to impeach him.
The governor, in a statement on Monday by his chief press secretary, Oguwike Nwachuku, said the impeachment plot was to be anchored on an alleged $12million fraud case against him.
Uzodinma accused sponsors of the protests against his victory at the Supreme Court of attempting to bring down the government.
“We know the game plan of the PDP because we are aware that they have been secretly inciting Imo State House of Assembly members to think of how to impeach the governor,” the statement said.
“So, they are trying to rake up anything they can, even falsehood, to incite the public.”
The governor said he had briefed his lawyers on the allegation.
Uzodinma added that allegations of non-assets declaration; dud cheque issuance and travel ban were false.
“They know very well that the assets declaration allegation was fallaciously contrived and has been thrown out by the court,” the statement said.
