2019: Buhari To Tour Igbo States.

Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha has revealed that President Muhammadu Buhari will embark on tour of South East states beginning with Ebonyi to improve

the relationship between the region and the All Progressives Congress-led Federal Government.

He revealed this on Thursday, November 3, after a closed door meeting with Buhari in the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

“The South East before now was not measuring in APC. But we have worked out strategies and modalities on how to improve relationship between the people of South East and APC government. “That was top on the agenda and the need for Mr.

 President to come to South East as quickly as possible, to begin to show his presence.

“Luckily, the President will be coming to Ebonyi state very soon and he will pass through Imo state to Anambra state.

 So, covering three states within this short time will be right step in the right direction.

 “We have come to realise in the south east that we are better off in APC than any other party in the federal republic of Nigeria.”

He said that membership of the APC in the south east would continue to increase as many politicians had been joining the party in recent times. On the 2019 presidential election, Okorocha stated that Buhari was democratically qualified to re-contest the presidential election.

He, however, stated that the President must go through party primaries so as to avoid imposition of candidates. “We don’t allow imposition of candidates. It must be democratically done.

If President Buhari will lead the ship in 2019, it must be democratically done.

 “I said, democratically and transparently done to the amazement of the whole world, the way we do our things in APC and people will be happy,” he added.
