The seeming tug-of-war brewing between former Governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Okorocha and incumbent, Hope Uzodinma has assumed a new dimension.
Uzodinma had sealed Royal Spring Palm belonging to Okorocha, but the former Governor, who is a sitting Senator, stormed the property on Sunday to unseal the premises.
Okorocha was accompanied by his son-in-law, Uche Nwosu and several of his loyalists in the move to unseal the property.
On arrival at the property, he demanded to enter the estate, telling the security personnel guarding the place that there was no court order to back up the sealing of the building.
Hence, he insisted on entering the building, which he eventually did after the locks were broken by his men.
Gunshots started when two of Uzodinma’s aides, Chinasa Nwaneri and Eric Uwakwe arrived at the place with another group of police officers and young men.
Open confrontation followed, leading to sporadic shooting and one of Okorocha’s men got hit by a bullet.
