Defectors To PDP Are all ‘Expired Politicians’ – Okorocha

Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Imo State who defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) over the weekend, has been described by the state governor, Rochas Okorocha, as “expired politicians” who no longer command followership in the state.

Former governor of the state, Chief Achike Udenwa, Senator representing Owerri East, Chris Anyanwu, Senator Ifeanyi Ararume and Mike Ahamba (SAN) returned to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at the weekend.

Okorocha who addressed journalist at the Government House, shortly after the PDP rally in Owerri, the state capital, said, “It pains me that Mr President was deceived and he spent N250 million to buy a bunch of expired politicians whose political value is not up to N1 million”.

Governor Okorocha, noted that the gang up of these people cannot in anyway threaten the fortunes or victory of the APC in 2015, adding that, “It is painful that after three years of President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration, all he could do for Imo people was to commission Udenwa, Ararume and Anyanwu as his projects for voting him into power.

“Everybody admitted that Imo gave President Jonathan 1.3 million votes, three years after we have nothing to show for it, does it mean that all Imo is good for is to cast votes?

What you saw in the state was a gathering of the problem of Imo people and thank God that they are now in one basket and they will be easy to evacuate in 2015.

“They have deceived Mr President, all they could say at the rally was how to take back power,” he added.

but what did they do with the power they had for twelve years.

He noted that Udenwas’s eight years as governance of the state was a complete failure, while the four years Ikedi Ohakim governed the state was a total disaster noting that their return to PDP cannot stop the All Progressive Congress (APC) their desired victory in 2015.
