Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu may Lose His Seat To APC Soon – Governor Okorocha Says

Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu

Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha, has said Ike Ekweremadu should be warming up to lose his seat as the Deputy Senate President.
Okorocha said a candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Benjamin Uwajumogu, who contested in last Saturday rerun senatorial election in Imo State, would displace Ekweremadu as soon as he joins the Senate.
He said it would be an aberration for Ekweremadu, of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, to still continue to retain his seat as the Deputy Senate President, after Uwajumogu had joined the Senate.
korocha’s Chief Press Secretary, Sam Onwuemeodo, quoted the Imo State governor as saying this on Sunday night at a victory party he organised to celebrate the outcome of the July 23, 2016 rerun election for Okigwe zone senatorial seat and the two state constituencies of Oru-East and Oru-West in Imo State.
Okorocha said that with the outcome of the rerun election, Ekweremadu’s seat as the Deputy Senate President had come under “heavy threat.”
