Speaking while addressing a youth delegates from all the geo-political zones in the country, who paid him a courtesy visit in Owerri on Tuesday, the Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, revealed that he would be contesting the 2019 presidential election.

Governor Okorocha who made revelation at the Imo State capital, gave two conditions; if President Muhammadu Buhari declines to seek a re-election and if 10 million Nigerians endorse him.

The Imo state governor also said that, as a child, the north gave him education and secured his future. He said he was born of Igbo patronage, raised by the north and empowered by the west, hence, he needed nothing more than to be a detribalised Nigerian.

The influential poliician and chairman of APC Governors Forum, also said that he is in politics not for personal aggrandisement but for the sheer glory of it and for the reason that he came to serve selflessly.

He said; “I will not run in 2019 if President Muhammadu Buhari will be running. Even at that, I will not also run at any given time unless 10 million Nigerians endorse me.

“May I remind all of you that my joy this evening has no bounds for the singular fact that the Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, Ijaw, northern minorities, western and eastern minorities, Muslims and Christians and others can sit down in a roundtable and speak like members of one family. If only for this, my mission for this nation is today achieved.
