Owelle Rochas Okorocha, Imo State Governor has said that his participation in All Progressives Congress has proved that the President can come from any part of the country.
Okorocha made this statement while addressing a huge crowd that received him at Sam Mbakwe Airport on his return from the APC National Convention.
He said “By participating in the contest, I have been able to prove that the president can come from any part of the country. It is the understanding of APC that the president should come from the North ever since. I knew about that, but I don’t like those facts, so I have come to distort those facts which are not the truth.”
He commended the party for organising a free and fair election; he also congratulated Gen. Muhammadu Buhari for emerging as winner of the primary election.
