Is he the Imo electorate? Okorocha should not play God\u201d an Araraume supporter told this Newspaper.<\/p>\n<p>Ohakim just two days ago made it open to Imo people that he will run again as Governor in 2019 polls.<\/p>\n<p>Araraume has since made his own intention known, and has been causing Okorocha sleepless nights because he is in the same political party, APC, with Okorocha, who advised Araraume not to run for Governor, but instead go for Okigwe Senatorial seat.<\/p>\n<p>With Okorocha\u2019s latest statement, Imo people are now ready and waiting when he will release the name of his proverbial successor, which Imo people had predicted would be his son inlaw and Chief of Staff, Chief Uche Nwosu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The out-going Governor of Imo State,
