How PDP Lost Imo Governorship Woefully Since Last Year. by Abagworo(m): 1:07am On Apr 08, 2015
Just like I rightly gave an accurate analysis of what was to happen in Presidential election I once again give an expo of what to expect from Imo State on Saturday.

PDP made their biggest mistake in Imo State by rigging out the rightful candidate who happens to be Ararume for the 3rd time. Ihedioha has been riding on a stolen mandate and Mbaiseism. The end result is Okorocha clinching 85% of legitimate votes on Saturday. The Mbaise factor has scattered Owerri zone and I see Mbaitoli and Ngor Okpala going the way of Okorocha. Ararume+Ohakim will betray Ihedioha while Ihenacho clinches the 3 Owerri proper LGAs. Okorocha will sweep Orlu and Okigwe zones like hurricane.

Another big mistake by Ihedioha was to pick an Njaba man as VP instead of Mbano man.

Whenever I'm hungry for a prophecy concerning Imo politics or even south east politics for that matter, I now know whom to ask

All hail Abagworo.....prof emeritus on Imo politics

“We are here to celebrate a man of
principle, a dogged fighter, a man who
stands for justice and a man who has
ensured that imposition of candidates by
any political party in Imo State has come to
an end. Political parties now know better
than impose candidates with impunity. The
man who ensured that this will never
happen again is Senator Ararume and that is
why we are celebrating him”, Chief
Udemadu explained.
Similarity, the speaker of Imo State House of
Assembly was more emphatic
“This victory party today is like a home
coming for me because Senator Ararume is
my leader. We are from the same Okigwe
zone and I thank God that we are working
together now. He has through his actions in
the governorship elections demonstrated
that he is the politician you can’t ignore. He
is principled and he is a worthy ambassador
of democracy”, the speaker gushed.
In his own contribution, the director general
of Destiny Campaign Organization, Hon
Independence Ogunenwe declared thus,
“Our leader, Senator Ararume has set a
standard to wit, a thief should not be
allowed to reap from the fruits of his loot.
Our leader has put the interest of Imo at the
forefront by denying the robbers victory”.
Governor Okorocha who was represented on
the occasion by his Chief of Staff, Chief
Jude Ejiogu also described Senator Ararume
as a game changer who has impacted
positively on the political fortunes of APC.
“You call him the game changer and that is
what he is. He really changed the game in
the governorship election”, he said.
Apparently, Ararume is not satisfied with
changing the game in the governorship
election. He wants PDP permanently buried
in Imo State. “The PDP is gone”, he said
repeatedly while acknowledging the
encomiums poured on him by both the
governor and other speakers at the event.
While thanking his supporters for heeding
his advice to work for APC and Okorocha,
he declared that PDP will soon sink in the
state.
“The PDP has paid heavily for its crass
impunity and I don’t want to talk of that
party. I am happy that you heeded my call
to vote for Okorocha and by your actions,
we have made it loud and clear that the
least we can do is to ensure that no
political robber is allowed to benefit from
his actions”, he said.
He reminded his followers that the decision
to support Okorocha does not stop at voting
for him. “We must continue to support his
government. He has assured me that he will
double his effort to ensure that his second
tenure is dedicated to the service of Imo
people. So, I want all of you to support him.
I will not want any of us to criticize him on
the pages of the newspaper or the media. If
you have misgivings along the line, avail
yourself of our internal mechanism of
complaint and I assure you that your
complaints will get to him and amends will
be made”.
He predicted that in the next four years, all
the South East states shall become APC
states promising that he will work tirelessly
to actualize that. “We shall work with
Governor Okorocha, who by virtue of being
the only APC governor in the South East is
the leader of the party in the zone, to ensure
that come 2019, all the South East states
shall become APC states”.
Because Ararume is not given to flippancy;
because he has remained a formidable
political force in Imo State since 1999; and
because of his track record of service and
vast connections which saw him playing big
at the national arena between 1999 and
2007 when he was a Senator, PDP should
actually begin to relocate from the South
East.

Who would he have picked from Mbano? Again,who was his deputy? Chuma Nnaji?
