The Senator-elect and radical governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha, has blasted a former governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiohmole, who is the National chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), for plotting a coup against him, by what he described as mere suspension, and accused the Party head of anti-party activities,
Governor Okorocha, emphatically said that Comrade Oshiohmole and his National Working Committee (NWC) does not have any power or jurisdiction to kick him out of APC without following due process. Imo State governor,
His words” “I just heard from media reports that I have been suspended from the party (APC). I think Adams is seeking for relevance and attention,”
“He doesn’t have such powers to remove somebody without following due process. I think Adams is the biggest player of anti-party in APC. The man has simply destroyed the party to a great extent. “So, I have sacked him from the party. If he thinks he can just stand up and say he has suspended me from the party I founded, without following the due process, in the same manner, I have sacked him from the party.”
Okorocha therefore accused Oshiomhole of sponsoring and imposing
Hope Uzodinma, APC Governorship candidate in Imo on the party. “The candidate
that Oshiohmole imposed on the party in Imo State lost his votes for the
Presidential election and all the members of the coalition in Imo State worked
for PDP,” The governor spoke on Sunday
Politics, a programme on Channels Television.
