Unknown gunmen attacked Imo West Senator Rochas Okorocha’s convoy.
On Friday, Okorocha’s convoy was attacked near the Ihube hamlet on the Okigwe-Enugu motorway, killing one police officer.
When the former Imo State governor was attacked, he was on his way to the funeral of another former Imo State governor, Ihedioha Ohakim.
He made the announcement on Sunday in Amaimo, the state’s Ikeduru Local Government Area.

Okorocha claimed the attack happened after he had finished attending the funeral ceremony in Mbaise and the convoy had dropped him off at his Spilbat mansion in Owerri on its way back to Enugu.
According to Okorocha: “I am angry. I am very angry. I am angry because I spent two days in Enugu and nothing happened to me, but it is in my own state that the convoy released to me by the governor of Enugu State (a very good man) to attend the burial ceremony of Ihedioha’s mother at Mbaise that was attacked and one policeman killed.
“What is happening in Imo State makes me angry. Many people who are running to govern Imo State are not capable, but I have seen one man whose cap fits. When it is time, I will speak.”
