The first son of late Justice Chukwudifu Oputa, Charly boy,
yesterday disgraced Governor Rochas Okorocha at an Arequiem mass organised for his
father in Imo State.
Chief Okorocha, was stopped midway into his speech, by Charly
Boy when the Catholic Bishop invited him to the alter to pay his tribute to the
fallen judge. Charly boy walked up angrily to the altar, snatched the
micro-phone from the governor, and yelled at the Bishop for giving him the
micro-phone to pay tribute to his father.

A lot of people have said, Charly boy decided to disgrace
him, when his government allegedly said they gave his family N20m for his
father’s burial, which is far from the truth.

“It is highly regrettable that the son of the late Justice,
Mr Charles Emeka Oputa, aka, Charly Boy, threw caution to the wind and turned
the church service into a political theatre that saw him acting or playing out
the script he drafted in Abuja with some Imo politicians, who have remained
cowed by the overwhelming popularity of Governor Rochas Okorocha”,

”We condemn that ugly incident and also wish to advise
politicians from the state to stop heating up the polity over power since God
is the giver of power. In 2015, God will decide who will be governor of Imo
State and when God decides that, there is nothing anybody can do about it”, Senior Special Assistant, SSA, Media, Mr Sam
Onwuemodo said.
