My Discussion With Buhari- Okorocha.
Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha said he discussed the need for President Muhammadu Buhari to visit the South East region. He said the President will begin the tour of the region beginning with Ebonyi.
He spoke shortly after he met the President in the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Thursday.
He said the trip was aimed at improving the relationship between the region and the All Progressive Congress, APC led Federal Government.
His words: “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.’’
