Imo State Governor and Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governors Forum, Owelle Rochas Okorocha says his party has derailed and is now playing the kind of politics associated with the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Okorocha stated this on Thursday in Abuja at the occasion of the declaration of interest by the former Governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole to contest the office of the National Chairman of the party.

“Another thing I think Oshiomhole will address is that our party has begun to play the same kind of politics like PDP. All of a sudden, we have started derailing and playing the PDP kind of politics.

“This was started by some people who found themselves in political offices especially appointments, who did not win their booths and wards,” Okorocha said.

“Today, our party is going through some challenges and I must commend those who helped fight for this party even before this time, they have done well but the fight ahead, the challenges ahead are greater and we need great men like Adams Oshiomhole to do this job. For me particularly, Adams will strengthen the APC in South-South and South-East,” the governor added.
