The Chairman of All Progressives Congress Governors Forum and Governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Ojorocha, on Monday alleged that seven governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party were meeting secretly with the leadership of the APC.
Okorocha said the meeting was centred largely on how to ensure victory for the APC at the upcoming general election. Okorocha, who spoke at APC campaign rally in Amuwo-Odofin Local Government Area of Lagos State, however, did not give the names of the PDP governors involved in the clandestine meetings.
He said the disposition of the PDP governors to the APC was a clear indication that the party’s presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, and other candidates flying the flag of the party were headed for victory.
He said: “Buhari’s victory has been sealed and delivered and today, about seven governors who are not APC are coming to hold meeting with us privately. “There is fear in the country and the fear was that they know that Buhari is a good man and he will win. “They know that once the Independent National Electoral Commission announces Buhari as the winner of the presidential election, all the bad people who are embezzling the country’s fund will leave the country at night. “The fear of Buhari is the beginning of stoppage of corruption.” Okorocha said there is only one party in Nigeria now.
He said: “PDP died immediately APC was formed and we scheduled the burial of the party for February 14 but they postponed it to March 28. “We are waiting patiently to bury the party forever. “But let me tell you that you can change the date of burial but you cannot change the burial. “It must take place. “The worst thing that can happen to any nation is to have a bad government and the worst thing that can happen to any family is to have a bad father. “Today, it is obvious that PDP is a bad government and we thank God that we came together to change the bad government.”
