A former Governor of Imo State and Senator Representing the lmo West senatorial District, Rochas Okorocha, has denied reports of him dumping the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP
In a statement issued Thursday by his Special Adviser on Media, Sam Onwuemeodo, Okorocha said he only attended the burial of the mother of Kingsley Uju, representing Ohaji-Egbema/Oguta/Oru West Federal Constituency, buried his mother at Egbema on Friday, 30th December.
The lawmaker described those behind the story as mischief makers.
Okorocha said: “Our attention had been drawn to a story, claiming that the former governor of lmo State has joined the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
“We appeal that the general public disregard the story of Okorocha joining the PDP. lt is not true. The photographs attached to the false story are not evil since politics is not war. Nor a do-or-die venture.
“Our only concern was the virus some mischief makers tried to inject into the innocent photographs, taken at Uju’s mother’s burial, without malice or those involved being conscious of which political parties all those at the burial in question, belong.”
