APC demands Senator Rochas Okorocha to resign from the Senate
2 min readSenator Rochas Okorocha of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Imo chapter, has been urged to consider resigning as Senator representing the West Senatorial District of the state.
The party’s demand for Okorocha’s resignation was based on what it called Okorocha’s “poor and dismal performance” in the Senate.
Hon Macdonald Ebere, the APC’s state chairman, stated this in a statement signed by Cajetan Duke, the party’s publicity secretary in the state.
“Imo people have had enough of Okorocha and his family, whom they regard as unfit to hold any public office in Nigeria any longer, given their poor and dismal performance in the State,” the ruling APC said.
“Our party categorically condemns Senator Rochas Okorocha’s futile attempt on Arise Television to vilify Governor, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodinma, with wild claims, accusations, and allegations laced with hate and vehemence.

“Instead of presenting himself as good ‘Presidential material,’ Okorocha is busy behaving rashly, jeopardizing his chances by attempting to smear Governor Uzodinma’s image with fabricated lies, unsubstantiated accusations, and fabrications like the alleged Hope Strike Force.”
“We are aware that Okorocha is a master of ostrich politics and grandstanding, which he used to deceive the people of Imo for eight locust-infested years, but he has failed this time.”
“In fact, we believe that if Okorocha has serious or incriminating evidence against Governor Uzodinma, he should report it to the police rather than the media.”
“For the umpteenth time, Gov Hope Uzodinma has stated that he has no personal grudge against Okorocha and is only focused on carrying out the people’s mandate.”
The party also urged Okorocha to put aside his personal interests and allow Governor Uzodinma to focus on providing good governance to the people of Imo.
