Okigwe APC threatens to expel Araraume in Imo

Senator Ifeanyi Ararume

Leaders of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Okigwe zone of lmo State have threatened to expel Senator Ifeanyi Araraume should he continue to destabilise the party and disparage the state  leader, Governor Hope Uzodinma.

Addressing a world press conference in Owerri yesterday, the leaders said it was unbeoming of Araraume to disparage Uzodinma without whose efforts the party would have lost last Saturday’s bye elections.

In a press conference text read by Hon Okoroike Chika Isreal, the chairman of all chairmen from Okigwe zone, the leaders regretted that since Araraume rejoined APC after his sojourn to other political parties,he has done nothing but to destabilise the party.

They wondered how Araraume who contested the state governorship election in 2019 under APGA and lost could think he has a right to the APC senatorial ticket.

He contested against the APC and lost. He pursued the matter up to the supreme court and lost only for him to come back to the same party he fought’, they lamented.

Describing Araraume as a serial political party defector and perpetual elections loser, the leaders argued that there was no way they could have rewarded him with a senatorial seat for his treachery.

According to them, apart from the fact that the court had already described Araraume  as an interloper in the election, the people of Okigwe zone is yet to forgive him for truncating the second term quest of Ikedi Ohakim.

They said it was shameless of Araraume to have accused Uzodinma of anti party activities whereas the governor worked tirelessly for the victory of APC in the election.

They recalled that the governor was right on ground as  the head of the grand finale of APC campaign for the senatorial elections just a week ago, where he publicly solicited the votes of Okigwe people for Hon  Frank Ibeziem ,the APC senatorial candidate, now Senator elect.

Without the unwavering support and commitment of His Excellency Senator Hope Uzodinma, APC would have lost the election to the opposition’, they submitted.‘‘

Trump leaves hospital for White House; removes mask immediately

President Donald Trump checked out of hospital Monday after four days of emergency treatment for Covid-19, pulling off his mask the moment he reached the White House and vowing to quickly get back on the campaign trail. Shortly beforehand, Trump had tweeted that Americans, who have lost nearly 210,000 people to the virus, have nothing to fear. A series of made-for-TV moments allowed Trump to squeeze the maximum from his medical discharge, starting by exiting alone from the large gold-colored front doors of the Walter Reed military hospital just outside Washington. Live on television, he then walked in a mask to a limousine, giving the thumbs up, before boarding Marine One helicopter for the quick flight to the White House — which he left on Friday after falling ill. After landing, he walked up the steps onto the South Portico’s stately balcony, demonstratively removed his mask and offered a 23-second salute to the departing Marine One. With less than a mont...
