Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha
said in Kaduna on Monday that the mission
to rescue Nigeria from what he called the
“inept leadership of the Peoples Democratic
Party” in the 2015 general elections, rested in
the hands of Nigerians.
The governor stressed that he was the only
one among aspirants jostling for the
presidential ticket of the All Progressives
Congress that had the capacity to defeat
President Goodluck Jonathan in the 2015
presidential election.
Okorocha spoke at a rally which was
organized by a northern group, Arewa
Peoples Grand Coalition, to urge him to
throw his hat in the race for the presidential
election.
The governor noted that none of those
jostling to become president had ever
provided free education in the country or in a
state, stressing that he had over the years
provided free education in some parts of the
country, adding that he would replicate the
gesture all over the country if elected
president in 2015.
Earlier, Okorocha had visited the Emir of
Zazzau, Alhaji Shehu Idris, and laid a
foundation for the Rochas Secondary School
in the emirate, which he said would be free.
Okorocha, who addressed the rally in fluent
Hausa and English languages, said, “I am the
only candidate that can dislodge the PDP in
the 2015 presidential election. Tell me of all
the people who are eyeing the presidency,
how many of them have provided free
education.
“There is a need for a change in Nigeria, it is
a must, and it must happen. The change has
become necessary in our country.
“I believe that if I fly the flag of APC,
definitely I will bring victory to APC in 2015.
I am the only one who can defeat PDP
without struggle. No PDP candidate can face
me in the other parts of the country. We
don’t have problem with PDP, our problem is
how to choose the candidate that can defeat
it”.
