Any leader who fails to provide basic necessities for the masses must be considered a failed leader – Okorocha

Admin January 11, 2021

Former Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha has said any leader who cannot provide the basic necessities of life for the masses must be considered failed leaders.

According to Okorocha, “The masses of Nigeria are not asking for too much from their leaders. All they are saying to us is, give us basic necessities of life – water, light, roads – and then you can do whatever you want to do.

Okorocha made this call on Monday during the commissioning of Rumueche/Rumuakunde Ohna Awuse Road in Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State.

Commending the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike for his administration’s achievements in providing infrastructural projects for the people of the state said, though a controversial politician, the governor is not a failed leader.

He however called on the people of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to come together to make Nigeria great.

“In this dispensation, there are many bad people in APC and many bad people in PDP. I think the good people of APC and the good people of PDP must come together for the purpose of making Nigeria great,” he said.

“I could imagine where I joined forces with Wike, let us bring all like minds and great people of Nigeria. Rather than complaining, let us come together  to make this nation greater and greater as it should be.”
