The All Progressives Congress (APC) has set up a Peace and Reconciliation Committee for Imo State and the Southeast, following grievances resulting from its National Convention.
Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha spoke in Owerri, Wednesday when APC supporters visited the Government House to congratulate him for a successful outing at the National Convention.
He said: “The essence is to ensure that peace returns to the party in the Southeast and Imo in particular.
“The Southeast APC Peace and Reconciliation Committee is headed by Senator Emmanuel Agboti from Ebonyi State, while the Imo State committee is headed by Prince Macdonald Akano.”
Okorocha added that there would be a Mega Victory Rally in Owerri. The rally, tagged: “Southeast for Buhari”, is aimed at “redirecting the mindset of Ndigbo in the current political dispensation to join the national ideology,” he said.
He added: “This rally will be attended by many governors, with Secretary to the Government of the Federation as a representative of the President. The idea is to promote the ideals of what President Buhari stands for, and to ensure that the Igbo are not left out again. It is also to rebuild all broken bridges between the north and west and position Ndigbo better.
“I also assure the people that the party’s leadership will look into the aborted State Congresses that there will be fresh congresses as soon as possible. That will now stabilise our party and get us ready for elections.
“I thank Imolites who have remained calm in the face of provocations and insults. The victory is for all of us.”
