VERY HOT: APGA apologizes to Alex Otti, others, begs them to return

The state chairman of All Progressive Grand Alliance APGA in Abia State Hon. Nkem Okoro Jp has accused the Ex- National Chairman of APGA Chief Victor Oye to be the one sponsoring those causing confusion in the state chapter of the party.This allegations was made during a press conference addressed by Hon. Nkem Okoro.

During the press conference, Hon. Okoro urged all aggrieved members who defected from the party to reconsider their decision and return to its fold. With special emphasis , the state party Chairman mentioned the names of Dr. Alex Otti, Mrs. Bianca Emeka Ojukwu, Senator Stella Oduah , Senator Andy Uba, Frank Nneji, David Onuoha Ogba, Chris Nkwonta, Okey Eze, Humphrey Anumudu, Stanley Amuchie and Uche Onyeaguocha, among others.

According to him " it was the inglorious era of incompetence and extortion championed by Augustine Ehiemere and the highhandedness of its former national leadership, that pushed many people away from APGA only for the Ex- National Chairman of APGA to deploy some disgruntled former State Working Committee (SWC) members to insult aggrieved leaders at a press conference recently".

Hon. Nkem Okoro therefore apologized to those he said were insulted and provoked leading to their exiting the party, saying APGA was formed as a platform for responsible leadership and not to defraud people "as the former national leadership did in Imo, Abia and Anambra states. Furthermore, I want to caution those strategising to use the party to defraud the people again to forget the idea, as that would not be allowed to happen again."

He cautioned the Augustine Ehiemere-led faction to desist from impersonating the SWC or risk severe sanctions for doing otherwise, insisting that the state party remained committed to aligning with its Acting National Chairman, Dr. Mic Adams and other progressives to reposition APGA for the challenges ahead.
