“All I’m asking is even if I have done anything that does not go down well with him or anybody, forgive and forget. Let us come together to work for our people,” he said.
Since assuming office as Governor, Uzodinma had experienced a sour relationship with Okorocha.
Recall that in January, some security operatives in the state, arrested and detained Okorocha’s son-in-law, Uche Nwosu, over an undisclosed crime.
Following Nwosu’s arrest, Okorocha accused Uzodinma of being responsible for the killings in the State by unknown gunmen.
