The Governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha, has accused the National Chairman of the APC, Adams Oshiomhole, of turning the party into a “regional party”.

Gov. Okorocha who was suspended from the APC over alleged anti-party activities, spoke to journalists after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House yesterday.


He said the South East must be given the chance to produce either the senate president or deputy senate president for geo-political balancing and distribution of positions.

“I’ve been watching carefully what is happening in the National Assembly; it’s a very funny drama. But all I ask from them is that they should consider the South East in their calculations. This nation will not be properly balanced if the South East is not carried along properly in the affairs of the National Assembly.


“Nobody seems to be talking about the South East; it looks like the South East doesn’t have a place anymore; that is wrong, politically speaking, and that is not good for APC because there is going to be a bigger APC after President Buhari must have left the seat.

“My fear now is that APC might have a serious setback in 2023 because the Oshiomhole-led executive is actually turning APC into a regional minority party, which shouldn’t be, because of his mistakes. Right now in the whole South East, we don’t have an APC governor.

“So, if there is any discussion in Nigeria now among the APC governors and President Buhari, there would be nobody from the South East. This is what the APC chairman has done in the South East. It’s a capital attempt to frustrate the effort of the South East. But I appeal to every Nigerian to support the cause of the South East.

“They shouldn’t think about giving the South East whatever position for giving sake. You can’t just wake up and give them any position. South East is a key primary zone in this country and if we don’t get the number one seat, we should get the number two seat,” he said.

He said the feud between him and Oshiomhole had not affected his relationship with President Buhari.

He said he was in the State House to invite President Buhari for the commissioning of over 1,000 projects he had executed in Imo State, and that he did not discuss the issue of his certificate of return with the president.

Agreed. How on earth would a party consider scheming the south east out of National positions? It is ludicrous and preposterous! It tells alot that the majority of the party's stakeholders are tribalist. APC, might be the majority, yes, but those positions are not APC party leadership positions, they are national positions. Since 1999, no zone was schemed out of national positions by the PDP leadership, despite the voting pattern. This changed in 2015. Scheming out the Igbos, a major ethnic group from the national equation, is the first deliberate grand mistake this Administration is making. It would not end well!

Modified!

What do you mean by putting all eggs in the basket? You guys annoyingly thoughtlessly say it. Do you mean there are no APC senator elects or House member elects from the south east? If there are non, it is simply a non issue. When you want to elect Chairman of Governors forum, then you can talk of all eggs in basket, but for now, how many senators do you want so that it will not be all eggs in Basket? How many rep members do you want so that it will not be all eggs in basket? What basket are those APC senators and Rep members from the south east contained?

who cares.....politics is politics.. you can t reap where you did not sow!!!..is it unbalanced....yes!!!..but in politics..you sow..then reap.....no sentiments attached

Okorocha...... you made a point.

But sentiment apart....... we don't deserve it.

We play politics of hate too much..........

And your greed wasted ur chance in the upper chambers and in the state.

Your second name should be regret now..........

Uche Nwosu could have been a member in the federal house of representative but you killed it

okorocha. You can't speak for imolites to talk less of s.east.



however. We do not deserve the sits. We voted PDP enmass. Apc were even scared to rig here.

Thought this fool was amongst those that said once the SEast elects senators,the SP seat will by right be yielded to them.
This is 2019.
SEast has now got about 5 senators,yet the region is not even being given a thought for the SP,DSP, Speakership or indeed any other post.
Okorocha is fit only for a role as a clown in a circus show.

Power is never given but taken.

You only eat where you have sown.

SE still have long way to go when it comes to Nigeria politics. Politics of emotion,,sentiments, hatred have no good returns than sidelining

Okorocha still dey talk?

See this man you still dey talk, you cannot eat your cake and have it

Fvck the ipodians, they are not one of us.

bastard jews.





spit.

Okorocha are you just waking up?

For the very first time, Okorocha is not blaming the Igbos for the way they voted. This is what I've always expected of him, but he keeps disappointing me.

Well, it's a good thing that his party is sending him a very strong message: there's no place for Igbo man in the party.

2023 will be super interesting because we will see what will become of the party when Buhari's tenure ends. Buhari is the biggest asset of the APC of today.

Naso dem be

Wise words from the politically stranded Governor

And you think the Dullard and tribalists care?

The flatinoz no want anything but Biafura or death or pdp. To them Naija is a zoo.

Mtcheeeeeew

Wetin wan happen for 2023 self. Who be biggest asset for pdp

Lekwanu ndi akpari.... See them. Nigeria will balance well well.
Shebi OUK enter APC because of him EFCC case, make him no make noise too much ohh. Because those witnesses wey disappear can easily appear and testify about the billions he embezzled from Abia State.
As for Okorocha, I have only one thing to tell you, "De jema kwana jee duu"

Rightly said

My governor
My governor

Like those who have been ruling have anything to show for it ....

This nation is a scam .....

North ruled, .. Nothing came out

SW ruled ..... Nothing to show

SS ruled..... Disaster.

North again..... Calamity..


The SE should just let this people continue their destruction..... History will always have it, the the SE never contributed to the woes of this nation


Update: those of u quoting me, u can cry a river.... I dont care, we knew those who destroyed this nation, our most productive years..... From abacha loot to obj thief.... To GEJ clueless to PMB false integrity ..

SE stay off federal seats for now.... They have messed up the nation, always looking for who to blame....

Na ojukwu I blame, if he smart enough, he would have make biafra a reality, .... By now we will be talking about Biafra land not naira land

Rochas is a learner. Next time you ensure that you don't have a divided house. Maybe APC would have stood a better chance if he didn't insist on his son-in-law succeeding him. Besides, it seems Imo people were already tired of him.

We have Six geopolitical zones yet only Southeast complains.

SouthSouth that literally finances Nigeria with it's oil gave APC 1million + votes and non of it's APC highranking members were caught supporting another party openly without fear of consequences

Yet

Southeast that gave APC mere 300k votes, that their elders bitterly supported Atiku to spite "Afonja" and "Fulani" party while their high ranking APC members openly supported other party... wants to give meaningless demands.

This is why I love Obasanjo's style, the man punishe'd the whole of Lagos for daring to mess with him, he sent igbo Senate president packing whenever they dare step out of line

The same country you claimed to be part and passel of' you're not talking of your constitutional rights nor legitimacy, what you're begging for is consideration in the position of common Senate (in other words PITY) and somebody is telling me that this people are not fools? They claim to be wiser than Nnamdi KANU. I rather die fighting for Biafra than be a slave to Fulani terrorists. If not Nnamdi KANU and people like us in IPOB there would have been a time when foolish people like Okorocha will be begging for the seat of their LGA Chairmanship and Ward Councillor. Let all the heads with common sense hail Nnamdi KANU and IPOB.

FFK,

Bunch of idiots!

You have spoken like who doesnt understand nigerian politics. Do you know that APC members in the southeast laboured more for the paper than those in the regions that Buhari is already popular ? Do you also know that but for the doggedness of Rochas and other APC chieftains in the south east,Atiku would have been awarded over 1 million votes in each of the 5 states and that would have made Atiku/PDP winner of the Presidential election ? Be talking rubbish !
