See what Rochas Okorocha has turned Imo State pensioners to: Pensioners shut down Owerri over two years pension arrears

Owerri, the capital of Imo State, was virtu­ally shut down yesterday by angry Imo pensioners who protested two years of pension arrears by the state government.

The senior citizens, clad in black attire, num­bering over 200, defied the early morning rain and trooped out to the streets in a protest march over alleged refusal of the state to pay them pension arrears of two years.
