A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State and former Chief of Staff, Tony Okocha has reacted to a statement by his former principal, Chibuike Amaechi that the All Progressives Congress, has zoned its Governorship position of the state to the riverine area.
Okocha in a statement said Amaechi did not speak on behalf of the party, as he spoke as an individual.
He said the former Governor cannot decide where the next Governor of the state would come from.
“Just like the Southern Governors that want the Presidency to come to the South and people from the North are kicking against it, that is the Honourable Minister’s opinion. It has nothing to do with Rivers people,” he said.
Well, he spoke his mind; he didn’t speak the mind of the party. I don’t think he spoke for the APC. He spoke as an individual,” he added.
