It was my state governor, the Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, who got me the ticket. “I went to Aso Rock and applied for my leave. It was granted and I left on September 18. I am back to work now. My trip was sponsored by my son and my governor. The government had no penny at all inside it. “There was no support from the Federal Government. I did not ask for it.
