Imo State Politics: A Call for Equity
In recent Nigeria news, APC Chieftain, Vitalis Orikeze Ajumbe, advised Owerri zone to forgo the 2027 Governorship ambition, supporting Okigwe instead. This, he argues, aligns with the Imo Charter of Equity, ensuring fair rotation among zones. The equity was disrupted in 2011 when Owerri backed Orlu’s Rochas Okorocha, sidelining Okigwe.
Ajumbe claims Owerri’s past actions, like spreading falsehoods against Okigwe’s Ikedi Ohakim, compromised political balance. He urges Owerri and Okigwe to unite against Orlu, noting some Orlu politicians aim for the Governorship in 2027. This collaboration, he believes, benefits the future political landscape of Abuja news.
Key Takeaways:
- Supporting Okigwe aligns with the Imo Charter of Equity.
- Owerri’s past decisions have skewed political balance.
- Unity between Owerri and Okigwe is crucial against Orlu’s ambitions.
