He said that those who do not believe in Christianity want to use
Buhari and APC to achieve their aim in Nigeria, adding that there is on
going battle in the world, particularly in America and France where
there is a serious problem caused by these fundamentalists who don’t
want Christians to exist.
“I came out to tell our people the truth and nothing but the truth.
The only reason they want President Jonathan removed is because he is a
Christian and we will not allow that to happen,” he noted.
He called on the Imo citizens to vote for President Jonathan and
Ihedioha as governor to serve both the country and the state. “We the
Igbo leaders resolved in Enugu that Ndigbo will give Jonathan bloc votes
in the presidential election.”

when Buhari was the Head of State of this nation, can anybody point at a
particular thing he did for the Ndigbo, adding that President Jonathan
had built international airport at Enugu, multi-billion naira silo in
Okigwe, Imo State, Port Harcourt-Owerri road reaching advanced state of
completion, and many others in South East zone.
He also explained that the PDP leaders chose Ihedioha to be the
next governor of the state “because we are fed of the lies being told
Imo people by Governor Rocha Okorocha on daily basis.” He added that
Ihedioha is truthful and straight forward, adding that whatever issue
arose from the primaries had been resolved internally.
Speaking also, former governor of the state Chief Achike Udenwa
recalled that the civil war started by the same antics the APC leaders
had indulged in, adding that “we cannot afford another war and that is
why we must join hands together to vote for President Jonathan and all
the PDP candidate.
He noted that the current administration of Okorocha had coverted
all the state property to his private property, acquiring all lands in
the state. “If we have done like converting public businesses to private
enterprises, acquiring all land would he has seen any state to govern.
We must vote him out to serve the state.”
Addressing the royal fathers also, Chief Ihedioha said he want to
be governor to transform Imo State and make education to have value once
again, adding that he would restore the dignity of traditional value.

leaders that want to rule the nation must be able to produce their
certificates to the people they want to govern, advising the electorate
to consider men like President Jonathan who youthfulness to govern them
not “people like Buhari who spelt forces.”
