Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, has denied any plan to impeach his deputy, Prince Uche Madumere.

The Governor who was reacting to news reports on the matter, denied such plans existed, saying that impeaching Madumere at this time “would not be of any political advantage to him”.

“He described the rumours of a plan to remove Madumere from office as the work of mischief makers,” the report said, quoting a statement signed by Okorocha’s Chief Press Secretary, Sam Onwuemeodo.

Madumere is famed for his loyalty to Okorocha, which the governor has repeatedly acknowledged. Both men have been friends for about 25 years.

Onwuemeodo’s statement, according to the statement from the State, equally dismissed as unnecessary, calls to dismantle the Owerri statue of former South African president Jacob Zuma, following is forced resignation on Thursday.
