Crisis: Enugu APC Stakeholders Pass Vote Of No Confidence On Chairman

Dissatisfied with the manner the Enugu State chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ugochukwu Agballah has been piloting the activities of the party since assumption office, founding stakeholders of the party yesterday passed a vote of no confidence on him.

The stakeholders, who held a unification meeting in Enugu, also passed a vote of confidence on President Bola Tinubu, national chairman of the party, Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje and the federal commissioner representing Enugu State in the Federal Character Commission, Ginika Tor for their commitment towards the growth.

The decision of the stakeholders was part of resolutions reached after a voice vote which received total affirmation by participants drawn from the 17 local government areas of the state.

During the meeting with the theme, “Uniting the party in support of Tinubu/Shettima Renewed Hope Agenda,” participants went down memory lane on how the party was nurtured by those unconstitutionally suspended by Agballah to a level where it became attractive to all.

The stakeholders, in their separate speeches during the state APC grassroots constituency meeting, expressed deep concern that rather than taking the party to the next level, the Agballah-led administration has destroyed the party through unconstitutional suspension of founding fathers of the state.
