Three people have been arrested in connection with the invasion of the country home of the immediate past Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, the police have said.
All three were Mr Okorocha’s domestic staff.
Imo State Commissioner of Police, Rabiu Ladodo, said that his men swung into action immediately they got a hint of the raid on the former governor’s home.
Mr Ladodo said that preliminary investigation showed that it was internal sabotage.
He said the police arrested three domestic staff of the ex-governor including one of the cooks.
Ladodo said that the CCTV footage obtained by the police showed that the act which led to the invasion of Okorocha’s bedroom was allegedly masterminded by those working in the house.
According to him, “we have arrested three domestic staff of the immediate past governor.
“Preliminary investigation carried out by us showed that the invasion was carried out by those who are working there.
“We have obtained the CCTV footage in the house and that has helped our investigation.
“The footage showed that the invasion was purely an internal sabotage. We have arrested three domestic staff. We equally arrested the cook.
“I want to assure Imo people that we are on top of the situation and we are doing everything possible to ensure that nothing is left undone in making sure that justice prevailed.”
