Setback Hits Imo APC As Senatorial Aspirant, Clems Owunna, CY Amako Dump Okorocha

In what looks like the conspiracy of the year, one of the top shots of
the All Progressives Congress APC in Imo State, Pro Chancellor of Imo
State University IMSU, and Chairman Governing Council of the
Institution, Nze Clement Owunna has dumped Okorocha and APC hours
after both men clicked glasses during the commissioning of a
Recreation Park constructed by Owunna at IMSU, and inaugurated by
Okorocha.

Onwunna's resignation from APC came like s shock to many following how
Onwnna and Okorocha hugged each other and exchanged banters at the
occasion.

Trumpeta learnt that Owunna is heading to the All Progressive Grand
Alliance APGA, where he hopes to keep his dream of going to the Senate
in 2015 still alife.
Sources told Trumpeta that within the period he served as
Pro-chancellor of IMSU, Owunna discovered that Okorocha is a difficult
person to work with, as he will give you a job and yet dictate what
happens in that office from morning till night, therefore making you
redundant, yet you take responsibility for what ever comes from the
office.

It was learnt that while Owunna worked as Pro-Chancellor of IMSU, he
was not allowed to make any input in the Institution, instead
Okorocha's kinsman, and Principal Secretary to the Governor, Mr
Paschal Obi, was the defacto Pro Chancellor, Vice Chancellor,
Accountant, Registrer and all put together.

In order to distance himself from the rot going on in IMSU, Owunna
resigned his appointment and dumped APC for APGA to be his own man and
regain his sense of purpose rubbished under Okorocha's obnoxious,
family hegemony.

Trumpeta learnt that the presidency may be aware of Owunna's movement
to APGA where he is bound to pick the Okigwe Senatorial ticket of the
party.

Unfortunately, while Okorocha was yet to come to terms with the
surprise loss of Owunna, another of his political Ally and Special
Adviser, Chief Cyril Amako (Iritte 1) has also abandoned APC and
Okorocha for yet to be announced political party.

The Owerri West LGA born Amako is said to have managed to endure
Okorocha's antics, but has had enough now and pulled out from the
"bondage".

Trumpeta sources said Amako has been having a running battle with the
Okorocha family following excavation of sand at Nwaorie River, a job
Amako has been doing even before Okorocha became a Governor, but since
he assumed office, rather than benefit from a fellow party man, Amako
has faced tough tides as an Okorocha's female relation who is incharge
at the send excavation centres in Imo has from adopted various
measures to frustrate Amako from the lucrative business, which the
Okorocha family has cornered to themselves.

Amako, who was a former heavy financier of the PDP and even operating
the Government-owned Oguta motel, suddenly dumped PDP in 2011 and
teamed up with Okorocha and APGA to wage a serious political war
against PDP which cost the PDP the Guber seat in 2011.

However, Amako has now regretted his actions agents his beloved PDP,
and may be heading back to the party since his political romance with
Okorocha has ended in a sour note.
Unfortunately for Okorocha and APC, many trusted Allies of the
Governor have been leaving the party even as the elections draw
nearer.

First to move was Chief Felix Idiga (JAFAC) who was APC pivot in Orlu
zone. Now, Owunna, one of the roaring cocks of APC in Okigwe zone has
left.

Indications reaching Trumpeta are that in the next coming weeks, many
will follow suit as they accuse Okorocha of running the APC and Imo
Government like a personal estate, with only his family, inlaws and
stooges he planted at various places.
