Governor Rochas Okorocha |
Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has charged his party, the All
Progressives Congress, APC, to stop shifting blames and take
responsibility for the problems facing Nigeria.
Okorocha said though APC inherited the challenges, it must ensure that they were fixed.
He stated that Nigerians voted APC into power to fix their challenges and not to complain.
Speaking with State House Correspondents in Abuja, the governor
assured that the pains Nigerians are going through was only momentarily.
According to Okorocha, “As APC, we are responsible for everything
happening in Nigeria. We are responsible for the good, the bad, the ugly
but we are promising Nigerians that we shall fix it.
“We share the pains of Nigerians; every human being must feel it. We
also feel what they are going through but we are asking for a little
patience.
“Let us do things the right way and do it once and for all. I am sure
that by next year, you will begin to see changes, the price of rice
will drop, prices of dollars will begin to stabilise and we will see a
lot of challenges.
“But at this painful moment, nobody likes it. It is like a woman in
the labour room, when she is in the labour room there is no joy but she
has to pass through that moment and that moment, she does not wear her
high heel shoes, no makeup, no champagne, no party.
“She is going through a process but shortly after that process, joy
cometh once she sees the child. So, Nigerians should bear with us as a
government.”
