In his speech, he averred that the PDP have represented Ngor Okpala since 1999 at all level of legislation yet, they have nothing to show for it pointing out that a child born in 1999 should be twenty three years old today and ought to have matured and grown but noted with regreats the stunted growth of Ngor Okpala.
He opined that Ngor Okpala have been grossly marginalized and under developed under PDP representation necessitated by godfatherism and imposition of representative by someone who wants to ensure that Ngor Okpala remains in perpetual bondage.

He further asserted that APC have come to right the wrongs of the PDP failed representation adding that Ngor Okpala needs to be integrated in the political mainstream of Imo state house of assembly and the nation at large, and it is only APC led government of Imo State that can offer such opportunity as he assured them that Blyden Amajirionwu will regain and restore all that they have lost over the years.
He stressed on the need for Ngor Okpala people not to have a state legislature who is an opposition to the state government because they have a whole lot to benefit if their representative is a member of the ruling party.

IKEOHA added that, "As if imposing a house of Representative member who is currently serving a second term on Ngor Okpala without any achievement was not enough for them; they imposed a state house member who was never seen at plenary sessions or carrying out oversight functions which landed us to where we are today".
He advised them not to allow the imposition of another sculpture like representative stressing that PDP is expected to apologize to them for all the harm done to them and hide their faces in shame.
He concluded that APC is the only party that can guarantee their interest at the state and national level while he urged them to grab the opportunity with both hands as he pointed out that they will regain all their losses under the PDP misrule.
In his words, the Governor of Imo State Senator Hope Uzodinma stated that the shared prosperity government have come to Ngor Okpala because today’s event can be likened to the parable of the lost shepherd amongst one hundred but ninety nine was abandoned in search for just one.
He stated that God Blessed Imo State with great potentials and natural endowment and these endowments being subdivided into two sources being oil & gas and agriculture stressing that Ngor Okpala people is blessed with both.
He stated that their is no tangible evidence to show that Ngor Okpala is part of the democracy since the annals of democratic return.
