Imo State governor, Rochas Okorocha has described the entry of the former governor of Abia State, Chief Orji Uzor Kalu into the All Progressives Congress, APC, as a very good development, not only for the APC as a political party but also for the South-East as a people.
The governor regretted that he was shouting on top of his voice for the
Igbos especially the political leaders in the South-East geo-political
zone to join APC, but he was not only blackmailed but was called all
kinds of names, and that today, it has become obvious that he was not
wasting his time.
The governor explained that with men like Orji Uzor Kalu joining him
in APC, they would develop Igbo land under APC as the ruling party, and
noted that, Orji Kalu as an illustrious Igbo son is a political asset
any political party would like to have in its fold.
He urged other frontline politicians in the South-East to follow the
Orji Kalu example and expressed the joy that Igbo political leaders
have begun to respond positively to his clarion call that they should
join APC where the action is taking place now and will continue to take
place with good leadership which the party is determined to offer
Nigerians.
The governor reiterated that in APC there is nothing like old members
and new members because all the members are equal in terms of
membership, and assured that he would continue to work in tandem with
all the Igbo leaders in APC in the overall interest of the zone and her
people.
