Ihedioha Is Not The Winner Of Imo Guber Election – Rochas Okorocha

The immediate past Governor of Imo state, Senator Rochas Okorocha has said his successor, Emeka Ihedioha, did not win the election that brought him into office.

“Let me be clear, Emeka Ihedioha did not win elections in this state but was crookedly handed the mandate,” Okorocha said during a town hall meeting at his home town of Ogboko community in Imo.

Okorocha said Ihedioha did not fulfill the constitutional requirements of winning 25% of votes in two-thirds of the local government areas in the state which legitimizes the election of any Governor.

However, the Peoples Democratic Party regarded Okorocha’s claims as “ludicrous and shameful ranting.”

“Okorocha must know that Imo people will no longer tolerate his nuisance,” Oparah added.

The former governor reinstated his belief in the justice system of the country to do right by the people and return the stolen mandate to Henry Nwosu.

Rochas is back in the state for the first time since being sworn in as senator representing Imo West.
