During a gathering of APC South-South stakeholders, Tony Okocha, chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, expressed strong disapproval of the rising coalition movements forming outside the ruling party. He reassured the party faithful that the APC in Rivers is prepared to confront and dismantle any alternative political arrangement, especially one allegedly supported by Rotimi Amaechi, a prominent indigene of the state.
In a video posted by TVC from 1:11:09, Okocha acknowledged the past political challenges faced by Rivers APC but emphasized that the party has since found solid ground through unwavering support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He noted that Rivers State, once politically isolated, now has strong backing and leadership thanks to strategic alignments.
According to him, “Rivers State at some point was an orphan, until we started group trotting, and then we met a friend, a brother, somebody who loves Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. And so, River State has a mother, father, and brother. The only point I want to make in addition to what my colleagues have said. We hear that there is something some people are weaving together, and they call it coalition. And I’m sure you are aware that one of our sons is one of the frontliners of this so-called coalition. I want to assure us here that we are going to detonate that zero-capacity coalition in Rivers State. We have done it many times, and we will do it again.”
