Senator Rochas Okorocha has alleged that Governor Hope Uzodinma is plotting to stop him from running for the presidency in 2023.<\/p>\n

Speaking to newsmen at his Spilbat mansion on Thursday, Okorocha, who now represents Imo West Senatorial zone, alleged that Uzodimma\u2019s government is filled with \u201cdeceit and lies.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said one example of this deceit is Uzodimma\u2019s failure to fulfil his promise of naming those sponsoring insecurity in the state.<\/p>\n

He alleged that Uzodimma has a strike force called \u2018Hopism Strike Force\u2019.<\/p>\n

Okorocha debunked allegations by Uzodimma that he (Okorocha) is usurping his powers as governor.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI have been a governor for eight years and I am now the Senator. I will not be contesting for governor again neither am I contesting for senate or House of Representatives. I am only going federal. My only problem with him may be is because I want to contest for presidency, which he\u2019s trying to stop me or my son-in-law who may probably contest with him in 2023. But let tell you, Uzodinma cannot stop me from running for presidency and if he wants to try, I am waiting for him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Okorocha also debunked allegations that he wants to defect from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), saying that as a founding member of APC, he is still in the ruling party.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
