Okorocha goes hard on Njemanze for revealing abortion law saga

The Imo State government has allegedly displayed its displeasure with the Chairman, Association of Catholic Medical Practitioners of Nigeria, Dr. Phillip Njemanze, who revealed the facts behind the controversial abortion law signed by Governor Rochas Okorocha.

'Since I broke the news on the abortion law foisted on Imo people by the state government, the Director of Lands was ordered to revoke the land for the construction of new mega hospital complex,' Njemanze said.

According to Dr. Njemanze, the plot of land meant for the building of a N50 billion modern specialist hospital in Owerri has allegedly been revoked by the state government.

He said the land, which has Certificate of Occupancy Number 46 Page 46, Volume 308, assigned to Chidicon Medical Centre, was situated in Plot C, Parcel B, Naze Road and New Naze Industrial Layout.

It was gathered that the 5.5-hectare piece of land, where construction work started before Okorocha's administration came on board, has been taken over by the state government. -Vanguard.
