He said:

“I have not left APC. I am still in APC. Nobody has stakes in APC more than me. The worst insults I had in Imo and in the southeast in 2015 was because of APC and President Muhammadu Buhari."

Okorocha also revealed that Buhari was not aware of the injustice being meted out to the elected APC executives in Imo from the state to the ward levels.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had previously reported that Okorocha said that he and other progressive-minded politicians are muting a new political order ahead of 2023.

It was reported that he said this is as a result of the silent agitations and complaints across the country against the current state of the nation.
