Governor of Imo state and presidential aspirant of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Rochas Okorocha on Monday said if the APC wants to defeat President Goodluck Jonathan of the PDP in the coming elections, then they must field him as their candidate.
Okorocha disclosed this while speaking at a rally organised by Arewa Peoples Grand Coalition in Kaduna.
He said if the APC refuses to adopt him as the party’s presidential candidate, they will lose the elections woefully, adding that among all the other aspirants in the party, he is the only one who has what it takes to defeat Jonathan.
Before the rally, Okorocha also visited the
Emir of Zazzau, Alhaji Shehu Idris, where he laid a foundation for Rochas free
secondary school education in Zaria.
Addressing the mammoth crowd, he said,
“I am the only candidate who can dislodge the PDP in the 2015 presidential election. Tell me of all the people who are eyeing the presidency, how many of them have provided free education.
“There is need for a change in Nigeria, it is a must, and it must happen. The change has become necessary in our country.
“I believe that if I fly the flag of APC, definitely I will bring victory to APC in 2015. I am the only one who can defeat PDP without struggle. No PDP candidate can face me in the other parts of the country. We don’t have problem with PDP, our problem is how to choose the candidate that can defeat it.
“I am a leader, and leaders are never satisfied until things get better. The country is not doing well, there is no propaganda that tell us that the country is doing well.
“Our problem in this country is hunger. My first four years if elected the president will be years of radical transformations and change in Nigeria.
“On the day of my election as the president of this country, we shall sing the old National anthem that says ‘though tribe and tongue may differ, in brotherhood we stand”
