Okorocha’s son-in-law, Uche Nwosu, has been allegedly kidnapped
The son-in-law to Imo state ex governor Okorocha, Uche Nwosu, was kidnapped from a church service in state by gunmen in an Armoured Personnel Carrier and Hilux vans.
Nwosu was whisked away by the gunmen at St Peter’s Anglican church in his hometown, Eziama Obieri in the Nkwerre Local Government Area of Imo state, which he attended with his family for a thanksgiving service.
The gunmen reportedly stormed the church premises in an Armoured Personnel Carrier and Hilux vans.
They shot indiscriminately before taking their target away, while Nwosu’s security operatives watched without any form of resistance.

While some of Nwosu’s associates alleged that he was kidnapped, others speculate that he was arrested by the state governor, Hope Uzodinma.
However, the state commissioner for Information and strategy, Declan Emelumba, swiftly debunk such saying it was “ridiculous” to allege that the governor had a hand in the disappearance of Uche Nwosu.
The police spokesperson for Imo state command, Micheal Abattam, said that he was waiting to be briefed by security operatives in the division the incident occured.
