Gov. Okorocha picks Imo APC Governorship ticket after losing presidential

A few hours after losing his presidential ticket, Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha picked the governorship ticket of the APC in absentia. He's now the flagbearer of APC in Imo state after his son in law Uche Nwosu, the Commissioner for Lands and Urban Planning, stepped down.
