Why I dumped APGA for APC – Okorocha

 In an apparent reaction to the suspension slammed on him by the national leadership of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), for alleged anti-party activities, Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas Rochas Okorocha, has, again, explained why he joined the newly resgistered All Progressives Congress (APC).

He stated that the future political fortunes of Igbo were better served in the new mega political party. He also stated that APGA lacked the national spread to enable Igbo to achieve the desired political impact in the country.

Speaking during the 2013 national convention of  the Imo State Congress of America, in Atlanta, United States, Okorocha said the well-being of Igbo remained paramount in all his actions  and would continue to take steps to assist Igbo to regain their rightful place in the political equation of Nigeria.

Okorocha urged Igbo to embrace the APC because it guarantees equity and political opportunities denied by the PDP.
