Imo State Commissioner of Police, Mohammed Katsina said that the
accident was a “minor one” involving the governor’s driver and ADC.
According to reports, Okorocha decided he would seek further medical attention due to the level of impact of the accident on him.
“Although the accident left me with a cut and some minor injuries, I
am fine. I will, however, seek further medical attention because of the
degree of impact made by the crash,” Okorocha reportedly said.
The Police Commissioner said he had posted a police investigation
team to determine the cause of the accident and would reveal more
details after the investigation was conducted.
