Governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha says that
seven governors from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are in private meeting with thebleadership of the All Progressive Congress, APC, to
garner support for the emergence of General Muhammadu Buhari as the next president of the country.

Okorocha spoke at the APC Rally in Mile 2 area of Lagos, Southwest Nigeria on Monday where
thousands of party faithful throng to show support for Buhari and Akinwunmi Ambode as Governor of
Lagos state.

He said the seven PDP governors were already in Lagos to hold a private meeting with the APC, but he did not disclose the identity of the governors.

“General Muhammadu Buhari’s (GMB) victory has been sealed and delivered. Today (Monday) about seven governors who are not APC are coming tobhold meeting with us privately.

“There is fear in the country. And the fear was thatbthey know that GMB is a good man and he will win.

And they know that once INEC announces GMB as the winner of the presidential election, all the bad people who are embezzling the country’s fund will leave the country at night.

“The fear of Buhari is the beginning of stoppage of corruption. Do you know that before in this country,Nigerians do urinate on the road? But when Buhari assumed power in 1983, it all stopped. And he also stopped corruption,” he stated.

Okorocha also said the PDP is already a dead party,bsaying that the party died immediately APC wasvformed. “We scheduled the burial of the party for February 14th but they postponed the burial to March 28. We are waiting patiently to bury the party forever. But let me tell you that you can change the date of burial but you cannot change the burial. It must take place. May the soul of PDP rest in peace,” he said.

“The worst thing that can happen to any nation is to have a bad government. And the worst thing that can happen to any family is to have a bad father. Today, it is obvious that PDP is a bad government.

And we thank God that we came together to change the bad government. And the change we came together for has started.

Okorocha wooed the Igbo community to vote massively for the candidacy of Ambode as he is the chosen one. “I am in Lagos for one man, and that is for Ambode. He is a good man. And he will not deceive you. He has a caring heart. He lovesbeveryone. All tribes in Lagos will be safe in his hands. And this is one man that can start and continue what Fashola started.

“Lagos today has improved and he is handing over the mantle of leadership to a man that will continue the geometric progression that has been witnessed in Lagos,” he said.

Speaking at the rally, Governor Babatunde Fashola said he wanted Lagosians to give him a gift by voting massively for Ambode, saying that his administration had greatly improved the facilities in FESTAC and Amuwo Odofin Local Government.

He urged Lagosians not to sell their Permanent Voters Card, PVCs for any reason as that represented their power to remove a bad government.

In his remark, Ambode assured the people of Amuwo Odofin that he would complete the Light Rail project and the expansion of Mile 2-Badagry Expressway which Fashola had started.

Also at the campaign rally was the National leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu who described the government of Jonathan as a corrupt one which must be changed
