Saraki had earlier stated:
^{"Yes, it is unbecoming and shocking for the running mate to the standard bearer of a leading party to abandon ship to the ruling party. This is unprecedented and nobody should try to justify such an act with the talk of being put under pressure. It is simply a sign of how low we have sunk as a polity. The country is experiencing a collapse of leadership values"}

First of all, yesterday we did defect to the APC. I did not watch Senator Bukola Saraki's speak but I heard about what he said. Ordinarily, I believe we are a political family in Delta State.and once we take decisions together I have to go with my political family because without that mily I have no politics to play. That's Number one.

Two, I did not expect that somebody like Senator Bukola Saraki should be able to speak concerning me because he knows he had also moved to the APC before and eventually returned so he has had movements to and fro so I don't even think he has the moral rights to speak about my defection at all, but I don't want to issues with him but the truth is this; we have a political family in Delta State. Previously, we were in the PDP but several things have been going on in the Party, the Peoples Democratic Party, whilst I do not want to issues with people but our stakeholders in this State have sat down to look at the events in the last several months and because of the events that we see and the communication coming from the leadership of the PDP at the moment, it did not appear to us that was a proper political vehicle to continue because it also did not appear to us that PDP was ready to be competitive in the 2027 General Election.

Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa on AriseTV

No be lie.....

"Those who live in a glass house should not throw stones"

Saraki na serial defector. How can someone who held the 3rd most important political position in the country under APC defect to the major opposition party? That's very low. No morals, no ideology, nothing! Oponu!

I agree with Dr Okowa

Peter Obi moved from APGA - PDP - LP
Atiku moved from PDP - AC - PDP - APC - PDP ans now contemplating moving to SDP
EL-Rufai moved from PDP - APC - SDP

Democracy was all good and fine when the folks above where jumping from one party to the other like frog but it becomes a threat once anyone s APC. You all can cry all you like, even Saraki himself will APC once the offer is good before 2027.

I'm just wondering what else Mr. Okowa wants from politics? Does he want to return to senate again?

See the excuse the llama is giving. Shameless men with no ideology. Abusing Tinubu but they are not ready to endure what Tinubu did. If Tinubu had decamped to PDP then, will he be president today?

You all know you're the same, na the average Nigerian people wey dey fight on una behalf I blame

Okowa, did i hear you say Stake holders in the state sat down to discuss. Whom and whom if i may ask ? If the system that brought governors fron the different ethnic nationalities to governance did not put state interests above personal gains, non entitities like you would not have the voice and confidence you have now. Betrayal, 2027 will be your final political burial.

Toh

Naija politicians

Everybody does it, even obi

All Nigerian politicians especially those that jump from one political party to another lack character and should never be allowed close to the corridors of power, even the ones we chose to call saint and exonerate.
We need young successful entrepreneurs, inventors and businessmen that are humanist with less political inclination to run this country.
Outside this, we are simply recycling our problems.

Yes tell him oh!

I'm looking to see obi in APC

True.

Saraki defected and became number 3 through APC.

But let's ask Ifeanyi Okowa some questions.

He hosted the July 5th, 2022 meeting that led to the Asaba Accord that presidency be zoned to the south. Ifeanyi Okowa was the first to break this accord by deputizing Atiku.

After losing, Ifeanyi Okowa did not make noise compared to the running mate of the candidate who came 3rd.

Now, Ifeanyi Okowa may have betrayed his running mate in the 2023 elections by reverting to the Asaba Accord.

This shows consistent inconsistency.

I listened to him. He is an intelligent man and speaks with some level of class. But his inconsistency is worrisome. Would he remain committed to APC?

One thing is clear: these guys were abandoned in PDP by some folks who ported to APC in 2015. Now those who ported from APC back to PDP have been abandoned by those who now port from PDP to APC. Ifeanyi Okowa argued that there is no ideological difference among parties. He did not lie here.

I'll share my savings when Obi s apc😁😁😁

Obi kekerenke obi
Elupee 99

Obi---dients will 😭😭😭😭😭😭 on that day


🤣🤣🤣🤣

PDP vice presidential candidate in 2023 general election .. Men without shame, honour and integrity.

Na Peter Obi cause am.

Na today dem start to dey abandon ships in politics?

Saraki no get point, abeg.

Politics is a serious business in Nigeria.

Nigerian politicians and their anywhere belle face politics

Pitobi go soon go America to start bouthing Nigeria because of this now

1- Was saraki the running mate of his party when he ed APC ? The answer is NO.

2- Oga okowa do you really know what it means to be selected as president running mate of the last concluded election ?

To some extent PDP trusted you that's why you were chosen to run as VP for the party, but In less than 2 years you break the trust by ing the opposition party. Olo faa now

Just as if you ed APC for the interest of the people, people know it's cos of your personal interest.

All will be well.
Transfer window is opened.

Obi is Atiku's Girlfriend.

So anything his Boyfriend does he copies

Zero integrity

ALTERNATEID:
Peter Obi moved from APGA - PDP - LP
Atiku moved from PDP - AC - PDP - APC - PDP ans now contemplating moving to SDP
EL-Rufai moved from PDP - APC - SDP

Democracy was all good and fine when the folks above where jumping from one party to the other like frog but it becomes a threat once anyone s APC. You all can cry all you like, even Saraki himself will APC once the offer is good before 2027.

Saraki is a thief, but he didn't have a massive case with EFCC.

He didn't rush to a ruling party to hide and escape conviction.


Dr. Ifeanyi "Horse Dentition" Okowa, you have no defense here.

Every single Nigerian politicians are the same, the only ones that cries out ard the ones not currently benefiting from the system.

haybhi1:
I'm looking to see obi in APC

Obi went to beg Asiwaju to run for Senate under APC.

If not East. A 3rd Class Dundee can't ever be a Councillor in SW.

Don't mind that hypocrite Saraki. some Nigerians are too selfish and self centered.

What difference can Okowa make in APC?How popular is he with his people?

Una be d same. All polithievians no get good shame.
