“Let me tell you, it is only Uche Nwosu that has gotten the support of the people of Imo State. He is the next governor of Imo State. That is why when the Abuja people rigged the APC primaries and fraudulently gave it to Hope Uzodinma, the people of Imo State moved to Action Alliance.”
With the above words, Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, on Tuesday, took the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, and the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, to the cleaners.
To the governor, Oshiomhole and Amaechi are enemies of Imo people and their candidate, Hope Uzodinma of the APC, will be rejected on March 2.
Okorocha declared that Oshiomhole and Amaechi are not happy with him because he stopped them from controlling Imo State politically.
Speaking at the Government House in Owerri, Okorocha declared that President Muhammadu Buhari’s statement during the presidential rally in Owerri had justified the ‘collaboration’ between the Action Alliance (AA) and the APC.
Okorocha, a senatorial candidate on the platform of APC, laughed at the governorship candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Emeka Ihedioha, and the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), Ifeanyi Araraume, pointing out that they never emerged through due process.
To the governor, PDP ticket was won by Senator Samuel Anyanwu but was given to Ihedioha, while that of APGA was handed over to Ifeanyi Araraume “by Abuja politicians and Anambra APGA”.
“I can assure you that AA and APC are in a perfect alliance to vote for AA for the governorship and APC for Presidency. That point was buttressed by President Buhari because he knows the level of injustice which took place during the primaries.
“But the issue now is that the other four governorship candidates plan to write the results but it will not work. Just like the one in APGA, he went to Abuja and Anambra and he was given the ticket of the APGA governorship ticket. Also the one in PDP, Abuja people gave the governorship ticket to Emeka Ihedioha.
“We all know that Senator Samuel Anyanwu of the PDP won the governorship candidate of the party in Imo State and you saw how they gave it to Ihedioha. We are tired of these Abuja people deciding who gets the governorship ticket in the various political parties, especially in Imo State”.
