Civil Society Coalition for Transparency has called on the National Chairman, Umar Ganduje, to promptly intervene and rescue the All Progressives Congress, APC, Enugu State Chapter from anti-democratic forces before it is too late.
The organization’s president, Mike Femi, made the call, expressing concern over the party‘s current situation in the State and pointing out anti-party activities allegedly conducted by some party chieftains.
Femi also warned that if the party chairman‘s national executive did not come to Enugu State APC, things would get out of hand, which could negatively affect President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s reelection in 2027.
He said: “The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Alhaji Umar Ganduje should dabble into this crisis rocking the party here in Enugu State before it caused President Bola Ahmed Tinubu reelection.
We have observed with consternation an insipid anti-democratic force trying to orchestrate crisis within the ranks of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Enugu state chapter.
The good people of Enugu State, especially members of APC woke on Saturday July 27, 2024 with a bizarre news of the suspension of the state Chairman of the Party, The Hon. Ugochukwu H Agballah by a handful of members who were either on suspension or facing interdiction.
The group in a macabre dance gathered in a hotel room in Enugu, where a group read a disjointed speech to the effect that Chief Agballah and three others had been suspended.
„The three others according to them included: the state Deputy chairman, Chief Augustine Alumonah; the Treasurer, Jude Aniogbo and the Organizing Secretary, Emeka Eze. The group levied outlandish allegations against the officers of the party.“
According to the Coalition, the group‘s sponsors procured an exparte order from an Enugu State High Court, „a most embarrassing exparte injunction order restraining Chief Agballah and ten others from serving as officers of the party.“ The group also said the exparte order was circulated on social media.
According to the statement, the Coalition said, „Our investigation revealed that millions of Naira have been set aside for the project to remove Agballah and destabilize the party in the state.
