imp doesn't recreate any tables if they already exists. It either
errors out, or ignores the errors.
You'll need to drop the tables and recreate them manually prior to
import.
If you don't have your create table scripts, you can generate them
from imp by using show=y log=<any filename> and possibly edit <any
filename> by removing extent definitions.
