President Goodluck Jonathan has been advised
to start preparing his handover notes now, as
“the All Progressives Congress, APC, is putting
finishing touch to take over Aso Rock in 2015″.
Governor Rochas Okorocha read the riot act in
Owerri, when he played host to APC local
government chairmen from the 36 states of the
federation, gathered in the city to celebrate his
52nd birthday.
“Come 2015, APC will be in Aso Rock but we
must be aggressive to drag PDP and its
members out of the Presidency and indeed,
Nigeria”, Governor Okorocha said.
While reasuring APC loyalists that the party will
win the presidential election, come 2015,
Okorocha equally said that PDP time was over in
the history of Nigerian politics.
“I have the capacity to govern the Federal
Republic of Nigeria. I must also make it
abundantly clear that the PDP and indeed,
President Goodluck Jonathan, cannot defeat me
in the forthcoming general election”, Okorocha
boasted.
He however pointed out that he will not run
unless the masses ask him to run, stressing that
his mission in Nigeria has not been actualized.
“My mission in Nigeria is yet to be fully
actualized. This is largely as a result of the
activities of the elites, who have denied me
several opportunities to serve my people”,
Okorocha said.
Continuing, the Governor promised that if given
the opportunity to rule Nigeria, he would fight
Boko Haram insurgents to a halt through the
decentralization of power to the grassroot.
He noted that what inspired him to join politics
was to render humanitarian service to the less
privileged ones in the society, pointing out that
this made him to introduce free education
programme from primary to the tertiary level in
the state.
Okorocha urged APC members to participate in
the revalidation of voters cards, adding that thie
would them cast their vote during the 2015
general election.
“You all must understand that Nigeria can be
better if the masses elect a credible leader to
rule the country”, Okorocha said.
