2019: Why I may not contest for President
Rochas Okorocha
Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, has said only a decision by President Muhammadu Buhari to contest the 2019 election could make him drop his personal presidential ambition.
He spoke at the APC National Executive Council meeting held on Tuesday. OkorochaWhy I may not contest said, “If Mr. President wants to run for election, he will follow all the processes and if he is the person, we will all support him. In APC, there is no imposition of candidate.
“If Buhari is running, I will allow that man to continue but if he is not running, I won’t sacrifice my Presidential ambition. Mr. President is showing the right leadership and taking the very right steps and there is reconciliation going on even with nobody talking about it. There is the spirit of reconciliation and people understand their role.
“Our role is to make this party great and we are all trying to do that; but importantly, the governors have remained the pivot upon which this wheel of change has rotated so far. We have kept this party working and after this meeting, our congresses and convention will commence in the early part of next year and all party organs will be strengthened. We are in good mood and high spirits.”
