Pictures speak louder than words. When both the immediate past Governor and Deputy Governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, and Prince Eze Madumere say they have been together for over 30 years, it is the absolute truth.
The above photograph of both men confirms. There they stood, years back, struggling, and thinking how to make it in life.
And they finally did, financially and politically.
As an icing on the cake, both ended up at the Government House Owerri Imo State, to lead their people. A life time ambition fulfilled beyond their thoughts, especially, after, as the two revealed later, a rather rough life in the USA.
Yet, with wealth, power and influence, they couldn’t keep it together.
Their friendship is in shreds. They have been torn apart by greediness on the part of one of them. Politics tore them apart.
A once beautiful relationship has been sacrificed on the alter of greediness.
Imo people are waiting for the day one of them will courageously tell the true story of their lives.
