The cheerful development happened Sunday inside CATOL Anglican church, Owerri, during the child dedication church service of Emmanuel Kamsiriochukwu Iwuanyanwu, son of eminent politician cum business tycoon, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu.

The exchange of banters between the two political gladiators started immediately the incumbent governor walked into the church auditorium and walked strength to his predecessor where they shook hands, started calling themselves names, hugging each other to the admiration of everybody present including the presiding Bishop.

While Ohakim held Okorocha on the hand and shouted Owelle Owelle Owelle, Okorocha kept smiling and pointing at him. They continued even as the governor took his seat.
