Imo
state governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, has said that nothing will stop the All Progressives Congress from taking over Anambra state in the November 18 poll.

Anambra is critical in Igbo politics. So we shall all come down here to deliver the state to the ruling All Progressives Congress. We have the capacity, we have the capability.
“APC is the structure for the emancipation of the Igbo nation. No man born of a woman can stop us from taking over Anambra state come November 18.
“At any polling unit during the election, no fewer than 63 members of Rochas Peoples Movement would be present to man the units and protect our votes. That’s the magic.
“We shall bring down the Imo formula down here and by the time we had finished Obiano and APGA would just pack and go.
