Re-echoing the stance of the party, Okorie said there were competent Igbo who could lead the nation and deliver it from its economic quagmire.

He said the Igbo had the conduced spirit to lift Nigeria because they are hardworking, creative and enterprising people.

Okorie blasted the ruling All Progressive Congress, saying the party has divided Nigeria along primordial cleavages more than any government had done. He accused the party of disintegrating the nation.
