Okorocha says APC members in the state will continue to respect the judiciary & its decisions

Following the indefinite adjournment of the matter between Chief Hope Uzodinma and Ugwumba Uche Nwosu over the governorship ticket of All Progressives Congress (APC) in the State by Justice Othaman Musa of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Governor Rochas Okorocha says, Imo people especially APC members in the State will continue to respect the Judiciary and its decisions.

The governor also urged members of the Party in the State to remain United and continue to work-hard for the Party and noted that with the kind of Candidates other parties in the State have produced, APC will win convincingly in twenty-five (25), out of the twenty-seven (27) Local Governments in the State, in 2019.

He said if the plan of the few Abuja based politicians who claimed to have joined the APC is to stop the Party from winning the State in 2019 and delivering President Muhammadu Buhari, by creating confusion in the Party, they have failed because APC will retain Imo in 2019 through the ballot box.

According to the governor, those who do not believe in the ballot box but only believes in carrying ballot boxes and writing fictitious election results in a hotel do not have the capacity to win Imo for APC.

In Imo, it is a clear case of the masses versus godfatherism. The grassroot is where the masses who vote on election days reside. Those who play their own politics in Abuja and on election days they stay in a hotel to write results cannot deliver Imo to the party. Let no one make any mistake about that.

It is only Uche Nwosu who can win Imo for APC in 2019. Any other person making such claim outside the Rescue Mission family is a liar. We defeated an incumbent Governor, Chief Ikedi Ohakim of PDP extraction in 2011 and in 2015 we defeated a sitting Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Chief Emeka Ihedioha with all the paraphernalia of Office and with the Federal might at his disposal and a billionaire, Captain Emma Ihenacho who ran on the ticket of APGA. So, 2019 will be easier to win looking at the Candidates of other parties.
