Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, has picked the governorship ticket of the AllProgressives Congress (APC)

The Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, has picked the governorship ticket of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) in absentia as he was
still in Lagos for the party’s National Convention
which ended on Thursday evening.

Okorocha’s emergence as the party’s governorship
flag bearer in the state came barely few hours after
coming fourth in the just concluded APC
presidential primary elections at the Teslim
Balogun Stadium in Lagos.
During the Owerri event, which took place at the
Imo International Conference Centre, the
Commissioner for Lands and Urban Planning, Uche
Nwosu, who was secretly adopted as the APC
governorship candidate by the party’s delegates,
announced his withdrawal from the race.
Speaking before the ratification of the Governor’s
candidature, the Chairman of the Electoral
Committee, Mr. John Alamba, said that the party
had the power to substitute any candidate that
withdraws from the race.
Nwosu, in his brief speech said that his withdrawal
from the race was based on personal and family
reasons, adding that the interest of the party
supersedes his personal ambition.
He enjoined the party members to give same
support and solidarity to the new candidate,
Governor Okorocha.
Apart from the delegates, also present at the event
were all the state executive of the Imo State All
Progressives Congress, except the Chairman who
was still in Lagos, members of the Okorocha’s
cabinet and other state appointees.
