Rochas Okorocha, senator from Imo State and former governor, has warned the All Progressives Congress, APC, on the dangers of not zoning its presidency to the Southern part of the country.He spoke at an event organised by the Abuja council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ.
The former Imo State Governor said the North had produced a President for eight years. Hence, it was only logical and sensible for the APC to allow the South in 2023. Okorocha said, “There’s no justification for APC zoning the Presidency away from the South. If zoned to the North, it will polarise the party. When I took the All Progressives Grand Alliance to the APC for the South-East to be in mainstream politics, I was called many names.
“We should develop national spirit, high spiritual elevation above personal convictions. It protects the indigent and weak in the society. I see positive and new things to come in Nigeria with such spirit. I agree with Southern Governors on the Southern Presidency.”
I'm sure u're very disappointed now. I can clearly see that u only sold d igbos in order to please ur fulani Master for nothing
Nice word of Advise to the Apc mr Minister and for the growth progress of (Federal Republic Of Nigeria) as a Nation 👍💙💦
When you were merging with them, you thought you will co-own as founder, now it's glaring you have been played,if you are still waiting till it happens,you are a fool.
Are you sure?
It will be a fight of the entire Fulanis North against the entire South including Benue, Taraba and those non Fulanis in the North with reasonable Heads. If the Fulanis doesn’t agree then they have their President while we have ours in the South.
