Orlando Ikeokwu, the state Police Public Relations Officer disclosed this while featuring on Channels Television’s programme, Sunrise Daily, on Monday.

Okorocha was arrested after he broke into an estate belonging to his wife which was sealed by the state government.

“If investigation proves that he (Okorocha) has committed an offence, he will be charged to court,” he said.
