Before the guber election, Okorocha surprisingly visited Ararume&#8217;s campaign headquarters at Onitsha road, Owerri, where the former Senator asked his campaign platform to work for Okorocha&#8217;s re-election.<br \/>\nApart from exchange of certain items, Trumpeta was informed that Okorocha agreed to cede some percent of appointments to him as well as hand over to Ararume in 2019.<br \/>\nHowever, things seem to have turned awry for the camp of the Senator considering  the recent turn  of events which  has  forced the Destiny Organisation members to tarry a while before defection to APC.<br \/>\nTrumpeta  learnt  that  the  zeal  that  Okorocha showed  in  the Ararume campaign  team  has evaporated forcing some  of  the die-hard followers of the ex-Senator to reconsider joining APC.  It was gathered  that  the cold shoulder  the  governor extended to the group during  the  recent get  together to celebrate the governor&#8217;s victory was a warning signal that movement to APC may be catastrophic.<br \/>\nUnlike the pre-election romance, Okorocha not only shunned the Ararume group, but the only government official who attended and Chief of Staff to the governor, Chief Jude Ejiogu merely asked for the ex-Senator&#8217;s followers to join APC en masse and be identified with the broom symbol party.<br \/>\nWeeks  after  the order from  governor&#8217;s Chief of  Staff  to Ararume&#8217;s men  to  join APC, members of  Destiny Organisation  are  yet to publicly declare for APC. Trumpeta was informed that the Ararume people have employed \u201cwait and see\u201d approach. According to the details, the Destiny Organisation  will wait till after May 29, inauguration and appointment of  Executive Council members by Okorocha to see if the rumoured  agreement that a  percent  of  the people to form  his new cabinet  will be from  the Ararume men.<br \/>\nFurthermore,  the Destiny Organisation are becoming suspicious of the new alliance with Okorocha as  their camp were  not considered  in the list  of  ministerial nominees the governor reportedly sent  to President-elect for consideration.<br \/>\nMost loyalists of the ex-Senator are also said to have expressed reservations about the new alliance with the governor forcing them  to adept the \u201cwait and see&#8217; approach till Okorocha ends his appointments before  the declare public for APC.     <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Confusion has crept into the campaign organization of the former Senator who represented Okigwe zone,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14127","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-frontpage"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","elegant-magazine-featured":"","elegant-magazine-medium":"","elegant-magazine-medium-small":"","elegant-magazine-thumbnail-small":""},"author_info":{"info":["Imo Trumpeta"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/?cat=3\" rel=\"category\">Frontpage<\/a>","tag_info":"Frontpage","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14127","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14127"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14127\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14130,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14127\/revisions\/14130"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
