MRS. Callister Nnawuihe, whose husband collided with
Governor Rochas Okorocha in the now famed auto crash in the Orlu area
of Imo State has declared that her husband has been in the custody of
the police sequel to the accident that occurred two weeks ago.
She confirmed that
her husband was not treated at Orlu alongside the Governor as earlier
reported but was taken all the way to Federal Medical Centre, Owerri for
treatment.
On whether her husband was implicated in the accident by running foul
of traffic rule, she said she was not at the scene of the accident and
has not had the opportunity to discuss extensively with her husband
since the accident.
According to her, her husband is a gentle, law abiding man and was
certain he is innocent of any traffic or criminal allegation in the
circumstance.
On why her husband was being held, she said that she was informed
that it is ‘for security reasons’.
It would be recalled that following the auto crash, the media has
been awash with the version of the incident from Imo Government house.
With growing speculation that the governor had been driving himself at
the time of the accident and had unwittingly ran into Osita Nnawuihe’s
lane, it becomes imperative to hear his own version.
However, there seems an effective plot to keep him ‘out of
circulation’ as his wife confirmed that her husband is now ‘healthy but
inaccessible’.Efforts to get comments from the state Police Public
Relations Officer, Joy Elemoko Ugo, was unsuccessful as her mobile
number was not connecting calls.
A call to the state Police Commissioner, Muhammed Musa Katsina was
not answered and a text message to the commissioner inquiring about the
accident victim in their custody was also not replied A visit to St.
Mary’s Children and Community Hospital Umuowa where Governor Okorocha
received first aid treatment before being flown overseas, yielded little
as the Hospital Administrator, Sir Louis Ekwebelem affirmed that only
the governor, who sustained an injury in the head was treated in their
theatre by their Chief Medical Officer and the Chief Surgeon According
to him, “We did not see the other man you are talking about. He was not
brought here.”
