There were strong indicators at the weekend that the former governor of Imo state, Emeka Ihedioha would be joining the Labour Party (LP).

Ihedioha had resigned his membership from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in a letter to the national and state leaderships of his former party, after contesting the governorship election on the platform of the party.

However, there have been rumours that he would either join the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) or Labour Party where he is expected to run for the governorship position in the state in the next governorship election since he was not able to achieve such political ambition in the PDP.

The visit of Ihedioha to the Governor of Abia State, Dr. Alex Otti at the weekend in his Nvosi, Isiala Ngwa South country home has sparked yet another conversation among political watchers over the political future of Ihedioha.

The visit of Ihedioha to Otti and his (Ihedioha’s) cold war with the governor of Imo State, Hope Uzodinma has ended the hope that he (Ihedioha) will join the All Progressives Congress (APC) and APGA.

The chief press secretary to Gov. Otti, Kazie Uko confirmed the visit of Ihedioha to Alex Otti at the weekend.

Uko however said that Otti and Ihedioha went in for a close-door meeting but the outcome wasn’t made public.
