Emeka Ihedioha, the former governor of Imo State and a past Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, has officially announced his defection to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Addressing leaders of his grassroots-based “Rebuild Imo Movement (RIM)” at his Civil Centre residence on Thursday, Ihedioha declared, “My party, your party, our party is now ADC. That is the way to go. That is the party for all of us.”

He subsequently instructed his RIM leaders to return to their various chapters, wards, local government areas, and zones to begin building the ADC into a robust, grassroots-oriented political party.
“I urge you, as leaders of our Rebuild Imo Movement (RIM), to go home to your respective chapters, wards, LGAs and zones, and take this gospel to the grassroots, to the people. We are people oriented. Our strength is the people, the masses. We already have representation in all the boots in the 305 wards in the state, and our structure across the 27 LGAs and three geo political zones are strong, viable and functional. Just go home and invigorate our RIM structure which is highly effective and superb,” he said.
“I must thank all of you here and those who are not here, for your steadfastness, support and patience. I commend the DG (director general) of our RIM structure for his administrative ingenuity. I appreciate all the state executive members of our structure, the zonal, LGA and ward leaders. You all have been wonderful. Equally I use the state women leader, Lady Ijeoma Domike in appreciating all our women. I also acknowledge our youths for their diligence and dedication. Together, we shall triumph,”
