Uche Nwosu, son-in-law to the Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, said on Tuesday that the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state, Senator Hope Uzodinma, will not be governor.
Mr. Nwosu said this when he arrived from from Abuja, debunking rumours that he has dumped the APC for Democratic Alternative.
He stated that he remains the lawful Imo APC governorship candidate, claiming that he won the primary and “shall lead the APC to victory in Imo state in 2019.”
According to him, the court will deliver judgement in his favour.
“I am the lawful governorship candidate of the APC in Imo state. Our national chairman did not respect the rule of law and the constitution of our party in substituting senator Hope Uzodinma’s name for mine.
“The records are very clear. I won the first primary election on October 2. I also won the second primary held on October 6. The records are there. The police, INEC and DSS reports affirm my victories.”
“It is only for a matter of time. We will get justice in court. My name shall be on the ballot. I shall be announced as the APC governorship candidate in Imo state. Hope Uzodinma won’t be governor.”
“There is no truth in the rumour that I have dumped the APC for Democratic Alternative. I am still in APC. I am a founding member of the ruling party. I won the ticket of the party and I shall lead the APC to victory in Imo state in 2019,” Nwosu
