Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma has been criticized by former Imo West Senator Rochas Okorocha for his arrogance. During the All Progressives Congress, APC, Presidential Campaign Council inauguration, Uzodinma declared that he would be on the ballot in 2027, a claim Okorocha deemed inappropriate. Okorocha explained on Channels Television's Politics Today, "The day of our inauguration for the PCC, Hope Uzodinma, before the President, announced that, I will be on the ballot.
That was so arrogant of anybody to say what is in court. You have already decided that you are going to win." Okorocha went on to state that while Uzodinma is free to express his opinion, he cannot arrogate to himself the power of predicting the outcome. This statement comes shortly after the Federal High Court in Abuja declared Okorocha the APC candidate for Imo West senatorial seat.
Justice Obiora Egwuatu ruled that evidence presented before the court showed that Okorocha had won the majority of votes cast in the primary.
