Okorocha Stands Firm in APC Despite Family Attacks

Rochas Okorocha, the former Governor of Imo State, declared on Channels Television’s ‘Politics Today’ that he has no plans to leave the All Progressives Congress (APC) despite experiencing significant humiliation and violence against his family. He recounted a harrowing incident where he was attacked by thugs, which he described as an attempted murder.

His son-in-law, Uche Nwosu, was shot and hospitalized for nine months, and he was handcuffed as a criminal during his arrest, which occurred after a church shooting. Okorocha expressed his frustration over the treatment his family received, including the beating of his daughter.

He asserted his foundational role in the APC, stating, “I founded this party, and the name APC was given by Rochas Okorocha.” He emphasized that he would not abandon the party for anyone, despite the challenges he has faced from the current Imo State government led by Governor Hope Uzodinma.
