OHAKIM |
There are
feelers that former Imo State Governor; Ikedi Ohakim may vie for the Imo
governorship contest in 2015.
Ohakim was
reported to have told his supporters and political associates at his Okohia,
Isiala Mbano country home that come Saturday, 18th May, 2014, he will declare
his intention to return to Government House, Owerri for a second time.
Ohakim lost
the 2011 Imo governorship election to Rochas Okorocha, in a nail biting
election that attracted nationwide attention.
Sometime,
last year, rumours of his intention to contest for the governorship race were
quickly doused by his associates. Last week, another report had it that he has settled
to vie for Okigwe senatorial seat.
However,his intention to rejoin the governorship
race will certainly increase the intensity of the Imo PDP guber primaries which
has over 18 persons aspiring to grab the PDP governorship ticke .
Ohakim’s first
stint as Governor of Imo State has been largely hailed by his political associates who were beneficiaries
of his New Face of Imo administration, but has continued to receive knocks from
non elites in the State who have diverse opinion on his mode and style of
governance.
