Vice-President Kashim Shettima and Abdullahi Ganduje,
national chair of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are making attempts to
reunite Hope Uzodinma, governor of Imo, and Rochas Okorocha, a former senator.
The duo have been at loggerheads for some time now over the
politics of Imo.
In 2021, Uzodinma got a court injunction to seal property
belonging to Okorocha.
Okorocha made an attempt to unseal one of the properties but
he was arrested. He was granted bail same day.
In the buildup to the 2019 election in the state, Okorocha
handpicked Uche Nwosu, his son-in-law, for the APC governorship ticket, over
Uzodinma.
The result was two governorship candidates on the APC
platform.
The party would go on to recognise Uzodinma as the authentic
flagbearer, under the leadership of Adams Oshiomhole, the then national chair
of the party.
In a post on X (formerly known as Twitter) on Thursday
night, APC said it is now a united party.
The post had pictures of the four men high-fiving and
wearing broad smiles.
“Vice President Kashim Shettima, our National Chairman
Abdullahi Ganduje, Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma and Senator Rochas Okorocha
parley,” the party posted.
“Ahead of the Imo state governorship election, APC is a
united and strong house.”
The Imo governorship election holds on November 11.
