As Governor, I listened, Didn’t Kill IPOB Members Like Buhari Government Did – Senator Okorocha | Sahara Reporters

A former governor of Imo State, Senator Rochas Okorocha has stated that the Nigerian government needs to sympathise with the youth and address their grievances.

He also urged the South-East region to present a good reason why the nation should have an Igbo man as the next President in 2023.Okorocha, the senator representing Imo West Senatorial District, said he supports the position of Southern governors that the country should be led by a Nigerian from the South in 2023.

The former governor disclosed this during ‘Conversation with Owelle Rochas Okorocha at 59 and Award of Icon of Service and Philanthropy,’ aired by Nigerian Television Authority and monitored by SaharaReporters on Monday.“When IPOB started, they came to Imo State when I was the governor, but I listened to them and understood their grievances. They asked me to join them, and I told them if they can convince me to have another passport, I will join.

“I support the Southern governors on the issue of zoning the presidency and the next region is the South.“We started with South-West when President Olusegun Obasanjo . Then we went back to the North when we had Yar’Adua. South again with Goodluck Jonathan, and now the North is having it with the incumbent President . So, why would it be changed when it is the turn of the South again?“It is a fair thing to do. If this is not done, then APC becomes a Northern party,” the senator said.
