Contrary to belief that the leadership of All Progressives Congress, APC, rests on the shoulder of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, has debunked such notion, saying President Muhammadu Buhari is de facto leader of the party.

Okorocha made this holiknown during a parley with newsmen in Owerri on Tuesday; he said the APC cannot have two leaders in a party.

The governor, who is also Chairman of APC Governors’ Forum, said it was high time people stopped having the wrong impression that leadership of the party resides outside the presidency. “It is not true; the president is in charge of the party.”

According to him, “as soon as a president emerges, he becomes leader of the party, just as the governors are leaders of the party in the states, the president is leader of the party in the nation, we cannot have two leaders; we must correct such impression,” he stated.

He also debunked as untrue the rumour that the president collected $2.2 billion dollar loan for the rehabilitation of North East states ravaged by Boko Haram menace. “We never discussed the issue of loan, even the World Bank offer which was given to us was 20 years without payment.”

Okorocha said the American President, Barak Obama, had described President Muhammadu Buhari as a man of honour and integrity and expressed the willingness of American government to partner with Nigeria in the fight against insurgency in the country.

He said that same sex marriage discussion never came up in the United States, adding that it was mentioned in passing as it was alien to the culture of Nigeria. “We have a law that recognises marriage as a union between a man and a woman, our legal system has taken care of that.”

Describing the president’s trip as one of the best outings any Nigerian government will make to the US, Okorocha said the visit offered President Buhari an opportunity to meet with different groups such as Bill Gate, the Madeline Albright group, the NPI, etc.

On the issues of strike embarked on by workers in the state, the governor expressed dissatisfaction with the workers; adding that before his trip to USA, he reached an agreement with workers in Imo State and wondered why they should renege on such agreement.

The governor, who described the strike as politically motivated, urged the workers to resume work without delay.

The governor also restated the need for parastatals to be independent and more productive to generate income to the state as government is not willing to subvent them again.

Didn't Lair Mohammed tell the world on National TV that Buhari was JUST a product of the party and not the leader of the party? Were you in Burundi when the declaration Was made?

so you ve bn reading all my posts on nairaland? Why stealing my line? U for follow me make I sabi say u be my fan na.

Buhari made 2 political mistakes:

Declaring he won't go for the next election, that opens the room for speculation.

Not taking up his APC-leadership position on time.

He also debunked as untrue the rumour that the president collected $2.2 billion dollar loan for the rehabilitation of North East states ravaged by Boko Haram menace. “We never discussed the issue of loan, even the World Bank offer which was given to us was 20 years without payment.”


Maybe rochas was sleeping wen they discussed the loan

Of course I have been reading all your posts on Nl. Sometimes you sound intelligent and at other times you are intelligent by half. At other times you could be incredibly stewpid like you are currently! I did not steal your line, and even if there was reason for me to quote you, I will gladly do so and give you credit. I needed to zone your senseless to a backward zoo and that is why Burundi!

Gradually, everyone is identifying where his allegiance is. Yours is with PMB. But I doubt if Gbajabiamila and Ambode think the same way. We'll, PMB is definitely the leader of ANPC, that's undisputed.

hmm..Now, enough ranting. Sit and think like a sane man. I know its hard(cos u ve not bn doing it), buh pls try.

Check my posts on this thread again. I only tried to tell a guy to stop attacking pple unnecessarily. What is wrong with that? Upon all that is contained in the original post, all the guy could contribute was "mumu". I didn't even say Rochas was right to hav said what he said or otherwise. So what are u attacking me 4?

I just feel u ve bn looking for an opportunity to gv me a bashing on nairaland and that's all. You shld see a doctor.

Rochas can say whatever he likes but the reality on ground is that the APC have no leader. Its a conflagration of groups put together by external bodies without a central leader put above the various groups.
