We Are Winning The War Against Okorocha – AF

The Coalition of Imo State All Progressives Congress, APC, stakeholders known as Imo Allied Forces, has said the coalition is achieving its desired results in its on-going political battle with Governor Rochas Okorocha.

Theodore Ekechi, spokesperson of the group who spoke to newsmen in Owerri, said part of the success recorded for the coalition is making it difficult for “Okorocha to install his preferred successor for 2019 governorship, Uche Nwosu.”

His statement came at a time Okorocha’s loyalists had threatened to dump the party should the APC fail to submit the name of Nwosu as the 2019 governorship candidate in the state.

Mr. Charles Chalvon, a fierce supporter of Okorocha, among other things said: “We are pleading with the national chairman of our party, Adams Oshiomhole not to do anything that will end the existence of the party in this state. APC is Okorocha and Okorocha is APC. Some of us left PDP because of this kind of thing and now, it is happening in APC.”

Recall that an Abuja High Court had adjourned till further notice, the case of the Imo APC governorship ticket between Senator Hope Uzodimma and Uche Nwosu.

According to Ekechi, “We want the whole world to know that Imo people are not cowards and there are still men in Imo State. We have dragged Rochas to Sokoto; we have dragged him to Bauchi and to Daura.

“We have relocated him from Owerri. He doesn’t live in Owerri anymore. This is the victory I want people to see. Let us wait, which ever way it goes, Imo people can now decide whether they want anything connected to Rochas Okorocha directly or indirectly.”
