Okorocha accuses APC, INEC of plotting to kill his senatorial ambition
“The evil I feared in the PDP has befallen me 10 times in the APC ,” said Rochas Okorocha as he launched a fierce attack on the leadership of the ruling party.
PREMIUM TIMES reported how Mr Okorocha was declared the winner of the Imo West senatorial election. The presiding officer, Francis Ibeawuchi, however, said he was forced to make the declaration under duress. On Tuesday the governor narrated how he wrote an official letter to the commission over the situation.“The evil I feared in the PDP has befallen me 10 times in the APC. Last week, I wrote a letter to INEC for the first time, informing them of their wrongdoings and illegal actions to withhold my certificate on mere allegation of duress which was never founded, neither was there any committee set up to investigate the matter.
“Many things have happened so far and these should be of concern to everyone. INEC that made the submission to the tribunal has gone back, requesting to withdraw it because the submission was defending its declaration. But because the submission seems to be in my favour, they have said they want to withdraw the affidavit which is out of time.
