The government of the United States of America is to partner
with Imo in the area of power generation using the abundant gas deposits in the
State.
This development was made known by the Imo State governor,
Owelle Rochas Okorocha during a brief reception organized for him by a group of
Imo citizens at the Sam Mbakwe Airport upon his arrival from Abuja today.
According to the governor, the decision by the US government
to partner with Imo State was reached when he addressed the US Lawmakers at a
forum last week.
Responding to questions asked by journalists at the
occasion, Governor Okorocha denied allegations by some people that he met with
Imo State Lawmakers in South Africa during the period he travelled abroad.
He disclosed that he met with the President of Malawi, Mrs
Joyce Banda, who requested for a ‘Rochas Foundation school’ to be established
in Malawi.
Speaking further, the governor said he met with the former
President of the United States of America, Jimmy Carter and other top officials
of the US government.
He reiterated the resolve of his administration to provide
free education to indigenes of Imo State, build 27 general hospitals, 305 model
schools, 3 five-star hotels and tar all the roads in the State.
The high point of the occasion is the presentation of gifts
and ‘good wishes’ to the governor by all present to commemorate his 50th
birthday which was celebrated on Saturday 22nd September.
Appreciation for really being thoughtful and also for deciding on certain marvelous guides most people really want to be aware of.tax firms in dubai
