2019: Let Somebody Who Have Something Upstairs Govern - Okorocha by Tiwaz2: 8:56pm On May 28, 2018
Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has bared his mind on who should be elected as a leader come 2019

According to him, more emphasis should be placed on intelligence rather than zoning while fielding candidates for the 2019 general elections.

The governor said this when he appeared on Channels Television’s Programme, Roadmap To 2019.

“We are talking about somebody who has something upstairs irrespective of where he comes come, let him govern,” he said.

Okorocha, who is also the Chairman of the Progressives Governors Forum (PGF) explained that the North Western zone has produced Nigeria’s president thrice.

According to the governor, he is not an advocate of the zone that produces the nation’s leader provided the president has something tangible to offer.

“The three civilian Presidents of the Federal Republic of Nigeria are all from the North West, not from the North East or North Central.

“Shagari is from Sokoto in North West, even Buhari is from Katsina North West and his brother, Yar Adua in North West.

“We are talking about people who have something upstairs to govern. Why are we being so primitive at this time while we are talking about who has what it takes to help this country,” he said.

With next year’s election gradually gathering momentum, Okorocha is of the opinion that “the best (should) come and help the nation.”

Okorocha is trying to attack APC because he lost state party leadership.
