By Ebere Uzoukwa<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It is an indisputable fact that Sen. Ifeanyi Ararume’s last minute<\/div>\n
political mutiny enhanced the second straight victory Gov. Rochas Okorocha<\/div>\n
recorded over the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) in Imo State. After<\/div>\n
defeating Chief Ikedi Ohakim, who re-contested the governorship under the<\/div>\n
platform of the PDP, the rescue mission governor in 2015 also defeated<\/div>\n
Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, who was nominated as the PDP governorship candidate<\/div>\n
during the 2015 governorship election in Imo.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
After a rancorous governorship primary election that produced Ihedioha,<\/div>\n
the former Deputy Speaker of Federal House of Representatives, Sen.<\/div>\n
Araraume had outrightly rejected the result as pronounced citing severe<\/div>\n
irregularities. He threatened to doom the PDP and ruin its chances of<\/div>\n
wrestling power from Okorocha should the party leadership fails to reverse<\/div>\n
the outcome to his favour.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
When it became glaring that PDP was not amenable to Araraume’s conditions<\/div>\n
of flying the 2015 governorship flag, the Isiala-Mbano born political<\/div>\n
warlord changed his game as he aversively activated another dangerous<\/div>\n
political plan. He had quickly oiled and reassembled his political<\/div>\n
arsenals to make good his threat of downing the umbrella party.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As Araraume battled his former party and its hierarchy, Okorocha whose<\/div>\n
reelection bid was earlier greeted with a stiff opposition adjusted and<\/div>\n
clandestinely reached to Araraume. The governor, however, succeeded to<\/div>\n
lure Araraume who shockingly decamped to APC with some notable Imo<\/div>\n
politicians shortly after President Muhammadu Buhari was declared winner<\/div>\n
of the 2015 presidential election. He was audaciously received by<\/div>\n
President Buhari who attended in person as well as top APC leaders.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It is appropriate and most likely that Sen. Araraume had struck a<\/div>\n
political deal and agreements before undertaking the onerous task of<\/div>\n
delivering Okorocha in 2015. It is equally ideal to suggest that the<\/div>\n
political agreements may have been tagged and expressly tailored for 2019<\/div>\n
political project hence Ararume was not relenting on his yet-to-be<\/div>\n
actualized gubernatorial aspiration.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Through an orchestrated rebellious act against PDP, Araraume closely<\/div>\n
worked with other aggrieved members and successfully ruined the PDP and<\/div>\n
its earlier foreseen chances of taking over power from Okorocha. He<\/div>\n
upturned the known traditional voting pattern in Imo as PDP was dislodged<\/div>\n
in Okigwe zone for the first time to democratically seal Okorocha<\/div>\n
landslide victory. Also through his solidly rooted political structure,<\/div>\n
Destiny Organization, Ararume greatly influenced and sealed a pronounced<\/div>\n
victory for Okorocha in Owerri and Orlu zones as he sternly directed all<\/div>\n
his supporters and associates across the state to vote for Okorocha and<\/div>\n
APC in the governorship and state assembly elections.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The political alliance and frolicsomeness of the duo actually began on a<\/div>\n
peaceful footing. Okorocha had appreciated Ararume’s contributions by<\/div>\n
engaging his son, Ifeanyi Ararume Jnr, as a commissioner in his first<\/div>\n
cabinet after reelection. Though Ararume denied knowledge and endorsement<\/div>\n
of the appointment, it was later unraveled as a strategy deployed to<\/div>\n
position and politically nurture his son for deputy governorship against<\/div>\n
his 2019 governorship ambition. It was also gathered that Okorocha<\/div>\n
strategies were targeted to politically dwarf, detonate and morally knock<\/div>\n
Araraume out of 2019 governorship race with his son preferred anositioned<\/div>\n
for deputy.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Unfortunately, the political tide, as at today in Imo APC, is fast turning<\/div>\n
against Okorocha. By inducing and procuring a marathon endorsements for<\/div>\n
Uche Nwosu, his chief of staff and son-in-law as the next governor,<\/div>\n
Okorocha consciously or unconsciously ignited a fierce political battle in<\/div>\n
his party. Besides his relationship as the father-inlaw, Nwosu also hails<\/div>\n
from Orlu zone with Okorocha.\u00a0 After removing the four years Chief\u00a0 Ikedi<\/div>\n
Ohakim held sway(2007-2011), Orlu zone has continuously occupied the<\/div>\n
governorship seat of Imo State since the return of democracy in 1999.<\/div>\n
Chief Udenwa had an uninterrupted eight years(1999-2007). By 2019,<\/div>\n
Okorocha shall be adding another undistorted eight years of governorship<\/div>\n
for the same Orlu zone. Regardless of this obvious lopsidedness and<\/div>\n
political enslavement of Owerri and Okigwe zones, Okorocha in a desperate<\/div>\n
manner, defied all entreaties as he resorts to shenanigans that tend to<\/div>\n
domicile the gubernatorial power in Orlu beyond 2019.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
But Okorocha’s succession agenda as greedily crafted has been completely<\/div>\n
rejected by the stakeholders of Imo APC. The opposition against his<\/div>\n
proposed ‘familiocracy’ has swollen hence Ararume reached out to other<\/div>\n
stakeholders who are mutually opposed to Okorocha and his son-inlaw. A<\/div>\n
coalition known as ‘Allied Forces’ in Imo APC was formed to wrestle the<\/div>\n
party structure from Okorocha during the congresses. With the calibre of<\/div>\n
Sen. Ararume, Sen. Osita Izunaso, the national organizing secretary of the<\/div>\n
party, Sen. Benjamin Uwajimogu, representing Okigwe zone in the senate as<\/div>\n
well as the of APC National Convention Planning Committee, his counterpart<\/div>\n
representing Orlu zone, Sen. Hope Uzodinma, the deputy governor, Prince<\/div>\n
Eze Madumere, Hon. Goodluck Opia, representing Ohaji-Egbema\/Oguta\/Oru West<\/div>\n
federal constituency, Chief Tony Chukwu, a business mogul, Chief Felix<\/div>\n
Idiga(Jafac), Chief T.O.E Ekechi, Ichie Best Mbanaso, Sir Jude Ejiogu,<\/div>\n
former secretary to the state government and other notable politicians<\/div>\n
within the broom-waving party, Okorocha, at the moment, and to say the<\/div>\n
least, is profusely suffocating in Imo APC.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
After loosing out in the recent Ward and Local Government congresses to<\/div>\n
the politically sophisticated ‘Allied Forces’, a terribly bullied and<\/div>\n
horrified Okorocha had raced to Daura and Abuja crying for help. Those he<\/div>\n
reportedly met at Daura and Abuja did not mince words as they turned him<\/div>\n
back with an advice that he mends fences with the party stakeholders. But,<\/div>\n
Okorocha, who had earlier and publicly announced the retirement of notable<\/div>\n
politicians across party lines in Imo would never heed to wise counsel.<\/div>\n
Only him, and him alone, will decide the next governor for Imo people, the<\/div>\n
3 senators with himself as one, the occupants of the 12 House of<\/div>\n
Representatives seats as well as the 27 state assembly positions.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
While the ‘Allied Forces’ prepares by perfecting plans for the forthcoming<\/div>\n
state and zonal congresses, the brutally dazed and wailing Okorocha and<\/div>\n
his son-in law, Uche Nwosu, are rather busy scoring own goals by<\/div>\n
effortlessly leading an obviously dejected supporters to ‘fruitless’<\/div>\n
protests.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Like a warlord lacking tact and strategy, the seemingly frustrated<\/div>\n
Okorocha to the surprises of many also extended his battle to Oyegun’s<\/div>\n
doorstep and the entire National Working Committee(NWC). He openly accused<\/div>\n
the outgoing national chairman of ‘criminally’ conspiring with Ararume,<\/div>\n
Izunaso, Uwajimogu and other members of the ‘Allied Forces’ to hijack the<\/div>\n
party structure. He equally claimed to have become a victim of ‘Abuja<\/div>\n
conspiracies’ for opposing the proposal that could have fetched Oyegun and<\/div>\n
other party exco members an additional one year in office.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
But Okorocha’s unsubstantiated assumptions and outburst were swiftly<\/div>\n
countered by the national publicity secretary of APC, Mallam Bolaji<\/div>\n
Abdullahi, who berated the governor and accused him of mismanaging his<\/div>\n
relationship with those that ought to have queued behind him.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Apparently referring the governor as a frustrated fellow, Abdullahi said,<\/div>\n
“Governor Okorocha is being malicious and unfair to the NWC. If he has<\/div>\n
mismanaged his relationship with his own people, in a way that they now<\/div>\n
constitute an encumbrance to him, he should not transfer his frustration<\/div>\n
to the NWC.<\/div>\n
\u201cIt is certainly not right to set fire to the village because you want to<\/div>\n
kill a rat. If Governor Okorocha has any specific grievances, he should<\/div>\n
come forward with them rather than making this generalized accusations”.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
While ‘Allied Forces’ steadily dismantles Okorocha as the sole proprietor<\/div>\n
and owner of Imo APC, other stakeholders across party lines in Imo as well<\/div>\n
as the keenly watchful Imolites have endlessly celebrated the political<\/div>\n
demystification and apparent downfall of the ‘rescue mission’ governor.<\/div>\n
This is as virtually all opinions and commentaries canvassed in the social<\/div>\n
and mainstream media in respect to the development are pointedly tailored<\/div>\n
to mock, demystify and downgrade Okorocha whose recent destructive<\/div>\n
programmes such as ‘Urban Renewal’ have terribly inflicted hardship and<\/div>\n
excruciating difficulties on the people people living in the state<\/div>\n
capital, Owerri.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Adding to the spontaneous celebrations that have greeted Okorocha’s<\/div>\n
humiliation, Sen. Ararume attributed the dismantling of Okorocha and his<\/div>\n
family members to a collective battle all Imolites must fight to secure<\/div>\n
the state from further destructions. Araraume through a recent statement<\/div>\n
released by his media aide, Ik Ogbonna had warped and derided Okorocha for<\/div>\n
brutally exhibiting dictatorial and anti-democratic tendencies.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Isiala-Mbano businessman and politician further enjoined “all<\/div>\n
well-meaning citizens, from the political class to the academia, from the<\/div>\n
professions to the clergy, the traditional institutions and even artisans<\/div>\n
are in agreement, beyond partisan, sectional, religious and cultural<\/div>\n
boundaries to stop Governor Okorocha from further destroying the state,<\/div>\n
economically, politically and culturally.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He also added: “In the last couple of months, Governor Okorocha has been<\/div>\n
raining abuses on every political leader of note in the state, including<\/div>\n
his predecessors, dead or alive. The good people of Imo state have so<\/div>\n
become used to the governor\u2019s reckless and uncouth utterances on the<\/div>\n
former that they no longer take him seriously.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Governor Okorocha deludes himself as a political giant but it is not a<\/div>\n
hidden fact that in his career, he has contested over 15 elections and<\/div>\n
lost all; governor, party chairman, senator, president etc. Even the 2011<\/div>\n
governorship election in which he was declared winner was a make belief.<\/div>\n
In 2015, he ran for a second term but the election went into second<\/div>\n
balloting and he almost lost because of his abysmal performance in his<\/div>\n
first term”.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
With the endorsement of Imo APC Ward congress by the party’s appeal panel<\/div>\n
deployed to Imo, the power tussle over the soul of APC appears to be over<\/div>\n
for Okorocha. The governor has lost the battle and finally the<\/div>\n
monopolistic control of Imo APC. He is therefore expected to activate his<\/div>\n
plan ‘B’ for 2019.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Believing that Imo electorate are still glued to his side, the governor<\/div>\n
may consider routing his son-in-law and obviously depleted supporters to<\/div>\n
another political party. Okorocha’s desperation to foist his son-in-law as<\/div>\n
the next governor of Imo State shall then be decided by the electorate if<\/div>\n
he finally activates such plan.<\/div>\n
