Okorocha - NGF Election Was Credible, Amaechi Won by Abagworo(m): 7:53pm On May 28, 2013
The Imo state Governor Rochas Okorocha has expressed displeasure over the crisis that erupted after the Nigeria Governors Forum election that returned the Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Ameachi as the Chairman of the forum.

Speaking at an event in Owerri, the Imo state capital, Mr Okorocha said it is not true that some governors were alleging that there was no election.

He said truly there was an election and that the election was free and fair.

“I can’t imagine it in my life that anybody will come up and say we did not conduct an election,” Governor Okorocha said.

He further said, “There was a free and fair election and the winner of that election was Amaechi.”

He said however for the growth of the Nations Democracy, all the Governors need to come together and sue for peace and unity in order to move the nation.

The Akwa Ibom State Governor, Godswill Akpabio; his Ondo State counterpart, Olusegun Mimiko, and some others claim the Nigeria Governors Forum election was rigged in favour of Governor Amaechi.

Shortly after the announcement of the result of the elections, which showed that Governor Amaechi scored 19 votes, against 16 votes scored by Governor Jang; Mr Akpabio addressed reporters rejecting the result, with the allegation that the election was rigged.

He claimed the ballot papers were not serialized and that Mr. Amaechi did not step down prior to the election.

Good man called Rochas. This man deserves to be our President. Rochas is man of the people. He is not an ethnic or religious bigot.

The governors forum should be abolished. Jonathan should then declare "no victor- no vanquished" Amechi style! It is nothing but a weird invention that serves no useful purpose other than to massage the ballooning egos of some wayward state chief executives. This group should be scattered and members forced to be more productive in their states with impeachment threats from Abuja dangling over their capitals like the sword of Damocles. . Okorocha should also learn where to draw the line between defending his personal interests and fighting for his states. His APC is DOD in Imo. Turning Imo into a hotbed of opposition politics when the state can do with a lot of federal help is counter productive and should be stopped. As productive as his two years in power has been, he should always remember that one of the main propaganda tools deployed against him by the opposition before his election was the charge that he was a northern stooge. Some of his recent actions and outbursts don't seem to help in changing this deep rooted perception. .

This is not about who is more believeable between Obi and Rochas. Just see the video recorded by Aregbesola and you will then know who is lying. Akpabio, Mimiko, Obi and the Presidency are just losers!

correction, Amaechi is not trying to contest as president but vice president, I wonder why Nigeria have refuse to learn the real basis of democracy from british and america they are coping, strange.

Thank you Gov Rochas Okorocha for saying the truth as you see it regardless

I dont understand how grown up men with wife and children, who claim to lead a state can call white, black just to lick President Jonathan's butt.

very terrible!

That thing that will happen tomorrow let it happen today. Let us see if Jonathan will send Armoured Tank into Imo State to kill Okorocha for standing up for the truth. Some of these kids who call themselves Governors just need to grow some balls!

I know you can't be a good Christian with all these curses on your Governor. When you point one finger at someone, the remaining four fingers pointing at you.

Forget Gov. Rochas' eloquence. The guy is a douchbag, a big joke. He's just another typical Nigerian politican, a very subtle crook..

I feel pity for the new APC, his likes will soon get it soiled and battered.
