Oshiomhole has been a tough and successful chairman so far. Without him in the saddle, APC and Buhari would have been history by now. He has earned his standing with his triumph over numerous enemies, both internal and external.

However, I'll say he and the NWC are wrong on suspending Okorocha. For one, Okorocha wasn't as dumb as Amosun who organized his supporters to embarrass Oshiomhole and eventually Buhari when they went to Ogun state. If anything, Rochas has tried to be very mature about the whole issue and worked for Buhari's election.

Also from feelers I get from my friends, neighbors and colleagues, many of whom detests Rochas, it's obvious Rochas is a grassroots mobilizer and Uche Ugwumba is a very popular and loved politician. At least he has more clout and chances than Uzodinma who was anonymous, and is still anonymous, throughout the presidential campaigns.

I believe a deal could have been reached in Imo with Okorocha instead of this high hand deployed. Despite his statue misadventures, he's a very charismatic and charming politician who knows how to get to his people.

I hope Ugwumba wins on Mar 9th. I hear the race is between him and PDP's Ihedioha. I wish him the best and a settlement of the rift between Rochas and APC. As for Amosun, I have my own stone with which I'll welcome him whenever I see him

Okorocha=Otocha

Rubbish writeup!!!

Serves him right.. Hope Uzodinma, will work with Emeka,to finally end Rochas's ambitions for Uche next week

Swearing-in ceremony is May 29th, and the APC have already started shooting themselves one after the other.

Uche Nwosu loved by which people? Maybe those in his constituency. If not Rochas, who knows Uche Nwosu? Hope will surely loose to Ihedioha but he's more known than Nwosu.

Rochas squandered the goodwill he came into office with in his second term when he conernered everything good to his family and friends, and has been at war with Imolites ever since. Forget the rented crowd and the media propaganda, if Imolites have there way, they will kill him. APC knew this and didn't make him buharig SE campaign warrefa.

All the projects done by Rochas have either broken down or about to.

I can't argue with you as it's your area and you surely know more than me there. I work with plenty Imolites and have them as neighbors. A lot of them, inspite of their dislike of Buhari, APC and even Rochas seem to agree that Ugwumba is loved because of his youthful nature. It surprised me in no small way.

The consensus anyway is that Uzodinma has no hope

Nice write-up.

Okorocha has done more to APC than any other Igbo man dead or alive, he even went ahead to win his senatorial seat for APC against popular keyboard NL strategists .

IMHO, Okorocha's travails is some kind of proxy war for 2023. Adams OSHImOle is a pawn in that fight without realizing it.

I support that of Amosun

Rochas was a wrong decision

I think so too. Rochas fingered Amaechi and Oshiomhole personally as being jealous of his rising profile because of 2023.

@Shuku0kukobambi you want Okorocha pardoned but not Amosun.
I thought both were accused of anti party activities. Why should Rochas be pardoned and not Amosun, doesn't make sense.

Those people are either not in tune with reality or they are just kidding.

Yes Rochas takes Uche around for him to get noticed, but that's how popular he is...Rochas' in-law. Hope is grounded in Imo politics just like Rochas.

A simple question for you....do you think APC will screw Rochas with a candidate they think stand no chance?

What y'all should be worried about is Hope's sympathy for his former friends and that sympathy could have been expended during the presidential election. Now he is in the eye of the storm and must confront his former friends in the coming days at the poll.

I didn't say pardon for Rochas. I only felt since Rochas was more mature about his own travails unlike Amosun who even organized to embarrass his party, his should have received some deeper consideration.

It's even Rochas and Ugwumba that organized the crowd to welcome Buhari and APC to Owerri. Where was Uzodinma?

Meanwhile, Amosun even thwarted the efforts of Osinbajo in Ogun. I believe the circumstances of Rochas and Amosun aren't exactly same

I think and hope Okorochas issue will be resolved and Amosun permanently banned, even if possible take the Senate ticket from him and organize a rerun

Okorocha tried for APC in the SE

All Amosun did was protest the way the party treated him. I must say his supporters acted way off script. If you watch the video you'd notice Amosun never expected it to escalate to that level sha.

Amosun case is understandable because even Oshiomole installed Obaseki...but Rochas case is what I don't understand. .working hard for the party doesn't make his actions right. .trying to put his son in law as governor and deputy governor. ..is it a family affair. ..he should allow people go and loot their own. ..let the looting go round abeg...

I don't believe for one second that Uzodinma will win imo state. You're the first to tell me that the man stands any chance and I won't argue with you because you're a son of the soil.

However I think that whatever APC and Buhari got in imo was due to Rochas and you're confirming it with the bold which says he sabotaged APC

Okorocha and Amosun sins are the same and at the same time not the same

Broadly they both fought against the party and floated parallel parties against the party wish

Specifically Amosun took his own further by stoning the Party leadership

Both deserve punishment only that Amosuns should be more. I think they will resolve this by pardoning Okorocha earlier and Dealing with Amosun separately

What of buhari that declared during campaigns that the people could vote anyone in the "governotarial" election but must vote APC in the presidential? If it's not antiparty I wonder what it is.

The only reason Shuku0kukobambi wants Rochas pardoned without Amosun is cos he knows we will taunt Rochas to the moon and back
That's why the idiot rushed to open this thread before wailers beat him to it

Which is why it was the dumb thing to do. If his friend Buhari was even backing him before, after that episode, I'm sure Dem go quarrel

Like Rochas or hate him, he stands a good chance of becoming the next senate president or he may even be the APC presidential candidate in 2023.

Okorocha is campaigning for his son inlaw and Amosun is campaigning for his trusted ally. Both committed same offense in my book. I can never agree with you Dayo, your mind is warped.

Are you unworthy of being treated with civility that you had to go that route? Is there any moment in your life that perhaps you could engage in some meaningful discourse? Do you feel less human that you would throw decency away Everytime? What's in this thread that triggered your basest instincts to manifest?

It is better that both were suspended. If only one was suspended people would have read all kinds of meaning into such decision.

But you guys were quick to remind us of the Bush's dynasty each time we call attention to Tinubu's dynasty, so what are we saying?

That's what I think too. Even in a court of law anywhere in the world, past records and behaviour come into play in apportioning punishment

The party MUST be seen to be fair and apply the law Equally to all members.. Anything outside that will invite chaos.. However that the punishment is applied evenly doesn't preclude the internal lobby and negotiations mechanism at the disposal of rochas in particular..after all they ARE politicians so let em politik!
