It’s no
longer news that Charly Boy a.k.a Area FADA denied Rochas Okorocha, the Imo State Governor from making any speech at
the funeral mass of his late father, Justice Oputa.
However, Charles Oputa known as Charly Boy has issued a public statement on the
reported rancour between him and Gov. Rochas.
Below is
the excerpt from Charly Boy’s press statement
This is to register my utmost pleasure and
appreciation to all Nigerians for the remarkable show of love to me and my
family in giving my father, Hon. Justice Chukwudifu Akunne Oputa, a most
befitting burial.
I am very happy and indeed, very grateful to all.
My special gratitude goes to the Federal Government and President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, Imo State Government and Governor Rochas Okorocha, Rivers State Government and Governor Rotimi Amaechi, for their immeasurable support and participation.
May I use this medium to clear the air concerning news making the rounds. There is no ill feeling between me and His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Okorocha (SAM). I did not snatch microphone from him, no such thing happened at all.
I do not put out as portrayed by these news reports; I believe I am a very cultured individual, not one to rubbish a good gesture.
Once again, thank you all Nigerians.
Signed:
Charles Emeka Oputa (CharlyBoy)
Areafada.

This statement makes more sense to me than the rumor. I said to myself,if indeed it happened, then it would have been the lowest moment in the life of the Areafada. It is good that he clears the air but bad hat he did not say what actually transpired that led to the Governor leaving the burial ceremony. Is he now playing the politics he strongly resisted? Time will tell.
