Former Imo Governor Rochas Okorocha has criticized current Imo Governor Hope Uzodimma, calling him an opportunist with no political clout to lead the Southeast. Okorocha stated that Uzodimma only exists in the Aso Villa and can't win the Imo populace's support. The two had a legal dispute over the All Progressives Congress senatorial primary in Imo West, with Okorocha suing to be declared the authentic candidate, while Uzodimma was recognized by INEC.
Okorocha affirmed that Uzodimma cannot work with anyone due to his opportunistic nature and lack of political enterprise. He vowed to form a Rainbow Coalition, similar to Nyesom Wike's, to support President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential elections. The coalition will include other parties like PDP, with some stepping down to ensure Tinubu's victory.
