Imo state governor Rochas Okorocha has refuted claims about the feud between APC leader Bola Tinubu and National Chairman, John Odigie Oyegun.
According to him Tinubu, and other APC governors are behind the party's flagbearer in the Ondo 2016 governorship elections, Rotimi Akeredolu.
This is despite the absence of Tinubu and other governors at the recent grand rally of Akeredolu.
He insisted that there's no division among the leaders of the APC over the emergence of Akeredolu as the governorship candidate of the party in Ondo, he stated.
“We are not jittery, but we are concerned. We are not happy that we are losing some of our illustrious members of the APC. I will call on them to please make haste and come back.
“Those who are aggrieved by any means should please come back. Sometimes, it is about communication, if the right communication was dispatched, I don’t think this would have happened. Everybody is still with him (Akeredolu), Bola Tinubu is still with him, the Ogun, Osun, Lagos, Oyo governors are with him. The problem is that, like in all families, we have a communication gap. We are all together and by the grace of God, Ondo State will be APC-compliant.
“The Igbo people will support him not because he is our in-law, but because he is a good man. The PDP and the AD candidates are strong but I know we will win.”
