Rochas Okorocha, Imo State Governor, has reportedly suspended two permanent secretaries and other six substantive directors (names withheld), serving in the Imo State Civil Service, for alleged fraudulent acts.

Reports say apart from being forced to proceed on indefinite suspension without salary and pension, the government appeared bent on getting them to refund every penny they allegedly misappropriated.

Equally, sources disclosed that Okorocha had ordered that the dossiers of all those who either falsified their dates of birth or length of service, should be forwarded to him for proper disciplinary action.

Government’s action, which was aired severally on the airwaves of the Imo Broadcasting Corporation, IBC, Owerri, also ordered the affected officials to immediately hand over to the most senior staff in their respective establishments.

According to Vanguard, one of the affected officials, who allegedly defrauded the state government to the tune of N45 million, may be handed over to the anti-graft agency for interrogation and possible prosecution.

Nice of him. I read something similar yesterday however, people only blamed the governor for sacking them. I am happy the governor has stated his reason for sacking them.

Lol. Chasing/suspending civil servants because they led others to strike when you were owing them..... Who will explain LGA funds and ISOPADEC Funds? Who will suspend you for the more you look the less you see projects that have been abandoned? Owelle, my Governor my Governor...
