Governor of Imo State, Rochas
Okorocha on Thursday described the defection of some governors of the All
Progressives Congress to the Peoples Democratic Party as painful.
He said this in Daura, Katsina
State when he led other APC governors to visit President Muhammadu Buhari to
felicitate with him in the spirit of the season.
Okorocha said: “We had wished
that none of them, especially the governors, had left the party. We had wished,
and it pains us so much.
“The pain is because they had
associated and related together as brothers.
“All of a sudden, you don’t see
one of your own; we feel it.”
Recall that three governors:
Samuel Ortom of Benue State; Abdulfatah Ahmed of Kwara State; and Aminu
Tambuwal of Sokoto State recently defected to the PDP.
Okorocha,however, noted that
despite their painful exit, he believes it had no further effect on the APC.
“The governors defection had no
negative effect whatsoever on the APC. Within one week, people had forgotten
and we have forged ahead,” he added.
