Delta APC Has Only One Legitimate Executive – Sobotie

The All Progressive Congress (APC) in Delta State has said there is only one legitimate and officially recognised executive committee of the party in the state.

The party chairman, Elder Omeni Sobotie, stated in Asaba yesterday it was important to lay to rest once and for all, the false narratives of Dr Cairo Ojoughoh and his collaborators which had become a recurring decimal for the state APC.

He said as the party state chairman, he superintends over the affairs of the party in the state, and since the last congress where he emerged chairman both at the local and ward levels, the party had not held any congress.

“Any group parading itself with strange exco names apart from the ones you know, who never bought forms to contest party positions are moving around claiming to be APC leaders, you know the right source to verify your stories.

“You have access to the state secretariat of the party, its national headquarters and if not satisfied you can approach INEC for more facts. Dr Cairo Ojoughoh has been officially expelled from the APC in the state which was ratified by the NWC of the party,” he said.

On why he was expelled from the party, Sobotie said what he did was a gross violation of the APC constitution in his futile effort to malign the state APC.
