Chieftain of the ruling All Progressive Congress, Rochas Okorocha, has said that he is more favoured to become the next Igbo President of Nigeria.
While speaking during a breakfast meeting with journalists at the Government House Owerri, the Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, on Thursday, said that he is more favoured to become the next President of Igbo extraction.

According to The Nation, Okorocha noted that he commands massive followership beyond the Southeast much more than any other Igbo politician.

The governor however lamented what he called the pull-him-down attitude among Igbo political elites, stressing that, “it is unfortunate that we the Igbo don’t celebrate our own, we are only interested how to destroy our own”.

Speaking further, he said that he will not be relying on the support of the Igbo to pursue and actualize his Presidential ambition.

According to him, “I stand a better chance of making the Presidency in 2023 but my greatest challenge will come from the Igbo. It is our character. It will be a foolish thing to imagine that the Igbo will support me”.

On President Muhammadu Buhari’s re-election, the Imo governor, disclosed that the Igbo are mobilizing to give him landslide victory.
