Okorocha Canvasses For Political Alliance

Ex-Governor of Imo State, Senator Rochas Okorocha, has expressed his interest to rescue Nigeria from its present predicaments.

He demanded from people of like minds to be part of a new political alliance which according to him, would consist of good individuals.

Ekohotblog gathered that he made the call while commissioning the Rumuche/Rumuakunde/Ohna Awuse Link Road in Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State, on Monday.

Okorocha, who represents Imo West Senatorial District in the Senate urged like-minded people from the All Progressive Party (APC) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), to stop complaining and join forces.

He added that both parties must begin to see reasons to look beyond the parties and work in unity to bring the country into a better light.

He said, “In this dispensation, there are many bad people in APC, many bad people in PDP.

“I think the good people of APC and good people of PDP must come together for the purpose of making Nigeria great.

“I could imagine where I would join forces with Wike. Governor Wike, this is my hand of friendship. Let us bring all like minds, all great people of Nigeria. Rather than complaining, let us come together to make this country greater and greater as it should be.

“What brought me here today is not a party. What brought me here today is love and friendship. I am not PDP, I am APC. But the time has come when we must break the jinx of party division and begin to embrace brotherhood and friendship and be able to state what is good and what is bad. A bad man is a bad man, even if he is PDP or APC.”

In his remarks, Wike charged members of APC in the state to discard politics of bitterness in the interest of the state and its people.

He expressed gratitude to the people of the state for making his promises to the state feasible.

Wike said, “I came here, I told you that I will do this road, I give God the glory that I have done it using one of the best construction firms in Nigeria.”
