Every day, the line between the Governor Hope Uzodinma’s camp and that of the former Governor, Senator Rochas Okorocha continues to grow thin.
This Newspaper learnt that tension is growing high between both camps and will soon explode in the open, as sources said the patience of Ex Governor Rochas Okorocha is running out with the ill treatment being meted out to his followers by Uzodinma.
Trumpeta learnt that with over fifteen Senior Appointments already released by Gov Hope Uzodinma, none of Okorocha’s men have appeared on the list.
This situation is said to be causing uneasy calm in the “Rescue Mission” camp of Okorocha, as some of his trusted allies are beginning to express skeptism over Okorocha’s assurance that he sent their names for appointments.
More worried is the fact that with the recent appointments already done by Governor Hope Uzodinma, almost the major plum positions have been shared and occupied.
Sources said that as it stands now, Okorocha’s men have completely lost out, except Uzodinma uses the position of Commissioners to assuage and compensate the Okorocha camp.
Trumpeta learnt that at the last minute, Okorocha contributed “Logistics” to Uzodinma’s “Supreme Court 388 Formula” with a promise from Senator Hope Uzodinma that he would be well accommodated.
However, with the latest development, Okorocha is not feeling comfortable as the LGA chairmen under his administration sacked by former Governor Emeka Ihedioha, which was one of the discussions on the table, are yet to be recalled.
To cap it all, not even one single member of the Okorocha camp has been appointed anything yet.
But sources said that Uzodinma is yet to forgive Okorocha following what both men went through in the fight for the APC Governorship tussle, which later went to Uzodinma through Gulak.
“I want to inform you that Uzodinma will deal with Okorocha at the appointed time. Does he think that Uzodinma is a fool?” the source asked Trumpeta.
The source went on to tell Trumpeta that it was Okorocha who at time exposed Uzodinma to many stories, including various smear propaganda against Uzodinma that are yet to go away till date.
“Okorocha is hoping against Hope. He will not get anything. He fought Uzodinma to the last. He worked against his Governorship.
So, you think after going through hell to obtain the seat now, Hope Uzodinma will share the glory with Okorocha? That it is very very impossible” Trumpeta was told.
