Tensions roams  in Imo state as President Muhammadu Buhari’s campaign train arrives  Owerri,  the state capital city tomorrow (Tuesday).

Stakeholders in the different camps in the battered state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are jostling for who will receive the president.

The sovereignty struggle was intensified by last Sunday’s removal of Governor Rochas Okorocha as the Buhari’s presidential campaign coordinator for the South-east zone.

In the last few days, there had been gale of suspension by the opposition camps.

Daniel Nwafoe, Chairman of Okorocha’s camp, raged the trail when he suspended the Adams Oshiomhole-inaugurated Chairman of the Caretaker Committee, Marcellinus Nlemigbo, and members of his committee.

Retaliating, Nlemigbo also declared the suspension of Nwafor from the party.

Some hours later, Nwafor-led State Working Committee (SWC) declared the expulsion of the party’s governorship candidate, Senator Hope Uzodinma, from the party. That faction also expelled Okorocha.

Although, Okorocha has asked for prayers as Buhari visits the state.

He appealed to all to sheathe their swords and be one-hearted so as to give the president a befitting reception.

The governor, in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Sam Onwuemeodo, charged Imo indigenes and APC members in particular to begin to pray for the President’s safe arrival and the safe arrival of all the party’s chieftains who will be coming with the President.
