Imo State governor and Chairman of the Progressive governors’ forum(PGF), Rochas Okorocha has urged Nigerians to wait until 2019 before judging the overall performance of the APC led government.
While giving a speech at the Federal government – PGF parley on Policy Synergy in Birnin Kebbi, Kebbi State, the bulky governor said that the APC came on board at a time the country was battling several problems. In his words;
“We want to appeal to Nigerians not to judge us from the past sins; we have only been in the mantle of leadership of this great country for two years. You should judge us when the mandate entrusted to us expired,”.

He also used the platform as an opportunity to take a swipe at individuals/groups calling for secession. He said;
“We are one united country and Nigeria will always remain indivisible; we don’t know who is Hausa, Yoruba or Igbo. Our determination is to stamp out hunger and bring democratic dividend to the citizens,”.
He advised Nigerians to be patient as the country’s leaders are working hard on a daily basis.
