No Politician Has More Stake In APC Than Me – Rochas Okorocha

Ex-governor of Imo state, and the Senator representing Imo West Senatorial District, Rochas Okorocha has come out to say that he is still an APC member.

He recently revealed this in Owerri through a statement from his Special Adviser on media, Sam Onwuemeodo, from a meeting with members of APC.

According to him, despite saying there were bad people and good people in both APC and PDP weeks ago, he remains a bonafide member of the ruling party, and he has not left.

He added that the worst insults he had in Imo, and in the South-East in 2015, were because of APC and President Muhammadu Buhari, plus no one has more stake in APC than him.

His words, “Our Party is APC. Don’t be confused when I said that there were bad people and good people in both APC and PDP. And that the good people in the two parties should come together for the good of the nation. I was talking about a movement and not party.”

“I have not left APC. I am still in APC. Nobody has a stake in APC more than me. The worst insults I had in Imo and in the South-East in 2015, was because of APC and President Muhammadu Buhari. APC was formed by President Buhari, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, myself and few other people. But those on congratulation trip, have taken over the party.”

“Daniel Nwafor and others, duly elected as the Executives of the Party remain as such. Those who want to destroy the Party lied to President Buhari. The Judgements on the issue all stated that the NEC of the Party or the governor, cannot remove the party excos. The party executives can only be removed by convention.”

“Whatever they do here without the duly elected party officials in the State, including the planned registration exercise, expected to begin on Monday, would be null and void. We do not recognize Governor Uzodinma’s APC in Imo. That’s not APC in Imo State. That’s PDP people. How many APC members are among his more than one hundred and twenty appointees? None of course.”
