Abia will have an APC
governor in 2015 –Okorocha

THE governor of Imo State and presidential
hopefuls of the All Progressives Congress (APC),
Chief Owelle Rochas Okorocha, on Friday, in Aba,
Abia State, assured his supporters that the party
would produce the next governor of the state in
2015.
Okorocha, who spoke during a unity rally of the
party, held at at the Recreation Club ground in
the commercial city, lamented the deplorable
state of infrastructure the PDP-led administration
has thrown the state and the country into, adding
that the APC was going to correct such
anomalies come 2015.
According to him, “The APC is not only going to
be the solution to the problems of Abia State in
2015, but to the country at large,” stressing that
the worst candidate in the APC is better than the
best PDP candidate.
On his presidential aspirations, Okorocha said
that he was in the race to represent the interest
of the igbo, who according to him, have been
relegated to the background in the scheme of
things in the country.
Okorocha, who lamented the absence of Igbo in
some of the key sensitive positions in the
Goodluck Jonathan’s administration, said it was
an intentional act by the PDP leadership to
sideline the Igbo and make them irrelevant.
He said: “You should ignore the insinuations that
the APC is a non-Igbo party. If that is the case,
why do personalities like me, Ogbonaya Onu,
Senator Chris Nwabueze Ngige and Senator Osita
Izunaso among others be in the party?
“I was the person that gave the party its name.
APC is a party for a new Nigeria. It is for the
good of the Igbo. The PDP has made enough
mockery of the igbo man. All of us are witnesses
of how the PDP messed up with our brothers;
Vincent Ogbulafor, Chuba Okadigbo and Evan
Enwerem among others. There is no Igbo man as
heads of the Customs, Civil Defence, Immigrations
and Army and among others in the present PDP
government.
“There is no hope for the Igbo man in PDP. Any
Igbo man in the PDP is there for his personal
aggrandizement and not for the interest of our
people. The PDP government has nothing to show
for in the last eight years.”
In his speech, the state chairman of the APC,
Hon. Donatus Nwankpa, said that the party was
bringing the inevitable change the people of the
state need, and assured its supporters that they
would be carried along in the scheme of things in
the state

E be like say Rochas dey dream. Ibos are ready to die for any government in power. Why would any sane Ibo vote for PDP again in Abia despite getting zero development from pat PDP Governors since 1999. The two Orjis swindled the state for 15-16 years without anyone stopping them.

Below is the current road leading to Ariara market and the so called newly built Ariara market in Abia state.

Rochas I see has graduated in this APC school of making noise.
Did he say the Igbos don't feature in this government? The other loser from the North say nothing good has been given to the northerners by this government, the Yorubas cry that they are heavily marginalised in key positions, so if the three major tribes are all whining, what tribe then is having it all?

Rochas should concentrate on securing his doormot first before trying to disorganise another. I won't be voting in Abia but even if I will, there is no room for APC the killer party. Better alive than dead.

lets vote out pdp in Abia state and vote in the Apc in Abia state..for Free education to both indigens and non-indigens in Abia

Noisemakers. APC has no stake in my state.

what is the background and quality of this anyim man?

It is a shame that Abia state is the worst govern state in Nigeria, they need a change.

Abia State needs change o!

APC is the answer!

lol.. That's why Abia will remain like it is now.. All the abians I know are very timid people unlike other igbos, I believe it's due to the fact that they've been having the worst governor in Nigeria since 1999.

the truth is PDP has failed abains all APC needs to do is present a good candidate

exxell:
What am certain and I keep on telling my Igbo brothers is this: VOTE APC IN ANY OTHER POST THAT IS NOT THE PRESIDENCY. I VOTED CHRIS NGIGE IN ALL HIS ELECTIONS SO FAR AND I WILL KEEP ON VOTING FOR HIM AHEAD OF APGA. IN IMO STATE TOO, I VOTED ROCHAS OKOROCHA. BUT AS FAR AS THE PRESIDENT IS CONCERNED, THAT ONE NA GOODLUCK TILL JESUS COMES OO.... Am afraid of that Buhari fellow. Goodluck may not be strong in his fight against corruption but I cherish my freedom. IF BUHARI WINS, THIS BOKO BOYS WILL BE SPRAYING BOMBS ALL OVER NIGERIA TO PROMOTE SHARIA AND ALSO IN RETALIATION FOR WHAT IS HAPPENING BETWEEN ISRAEL AND PALESTINE... Thanks.

sorry. You have not spoken like a wise person at all.

APC doesn't have structure in Abia state and can never win election there, APGA is in a better position to win the gubernatoral election not because they have a better structure but because of the Dim Ojukwu name and Ndi Abia are tired of t a orji's mis governance in Abia. APGA is the party to beat in Abia

Why not compare the two stadia built rather than all this childish rants..

Compare and contrast!!!

Just the same way Imo state would have a PDP Governor by 2015!

Stick with your PDP state of Abia and enjoy the development!!

Abia is one of the oldest state in Nigeria and constantly features in the group of "backward states". Are you saying you lack progressive minds like Akpabio, Rochas, Ngige etc in the whole state??

Well, enjoy your state jare don't mind bad belle like me. . PDP at all costs!!

We have never had party politics in Nigeria

It has always being about ethno religious politics in the disguise of party politics


APC is a Yoruba Hausa Fulani Kanuri party

Bros how did you vote in Imo and Anambra states? You know that's an electoral offence punishable by imprisonment under the law if at all you did that?

In Anambra then, there was no permanent voters card. Twas temporary. I did a pemanent voters card later. Anyway, that your electoral offence balderdash means nothing. No be Nigeria again? Mtcheeeww. Ave even seen a camera man carrying election materials and running away. He went scot free. Its me that you want to attack.

As far as i am concern, my governor is a BASTARD, a specialist in cheap propaganda. Am not partisan, i only vote based on statistics. That is why i am a huge fan of Kwankwaso, Oshiobaba, Ribadu, Fash, Rochas, Obi, Obaino, Imoke, Akpabio, Chime, Gej and my Master, Mourinho. I dnt beliv in Party as a determinant of good governance. But i hate APC becos they can't campaign without lying, just like Rochas just did. I will only vote a Fashola/ Rochas ticket or vice versa. Since it's Impossible, it's GEJ2015.
