Excerpts of Okorochas Speech At The APC Presidential Primaries I am very happy to be part of this history making event. We are the last hope of Nigeria and today we must get it right. We formed APC believing that coming from our small parties, we stand a chance. We are here gathered for the love of our nation. We are here to provide for nigeria the much needed dividends of democracy. There is nothing wrong with the Head of State, but there can be something wrong with the State of the head. I celebrate General Muhammadu Buhari who is today 73 years old, and Atiku is today 68 years old and Kwankwaso who is 58 years old. Jonathan is 57, Barack Obama 53, Rochas Okorocha is only 52 years old. Nigeria of today is different of Nigeria of 1960s. I am here to sing a different song, that of unity. I offer to serve as the president of Nigeria. Political power can only be justified when used for the good of the common man. “My People, my People” When I say to Nigerians, I will make education free, Nigerians will believe me, because I have done it before as a private citizen and now as Governor of Imo state I am a child of poor parentage, i hate poverty and what it brings. Today destiny has brought to your shoulder to change the fate of this nation, you must do it well, not on the basis of sentiment. Vote for me and I assure you that the Nigerian Naira will be equal to the dollar. My people!!, My people!!!!
