“The number of new decampees that we received today is evidence of such influx across the local government areas and wards.:
The APC decried rising insecurity in Enugu state especially the killings at Uzo-Uwani and Isi-uzo local government areas in recent time. The party noted with regret the incessant kidnappings and killings in other parts of the state especially along Ugwogo-Nike-Opi-Nsukka road.
The leaders condemned the apparent inaction of the state government and it’s strenuous efforts to suppress the news of the killings. The party declared that the Peter Mbah-led government has failed in its primary duty of protecting lives and property of citizens of Enugu state. They wondered why the state prefers to engage in elaborate deceit of showcasing what they call Command and Control Center that could not resolve security breaches beyond 10 kilometers radius from the capital city, as the huge population of the citizens in the rural areas are left at the mercy of killer herdsmen and other criminals.
The stakeholders commended the leader of the party in the state, the Hon Minister of Innovation Science and Technology, Chief Uche Nnaji (Nwakaibie) for attracting hundreds of employments to our teeming youths as well as federal government projects to the state. They also thanked the Minister for being a great sponsor of the party activities for some years now.
The party leaders also expressed happiness over the Minister’s sterling performance and achievements so far in the Ministry.
The stakeholders also extended similar thanks to other leaders especially the National Deputy Chairman, South, Chief Emma Eneukwu and others for their support.
The stakeholders received with amusement the news of the purported resignation of the expelled former state chairman of APC, Dr. Ben Nwoye from the party,who was expelled from the party in 2023 alongside other moles for anti-party activities.
One cannot be resigning from a party that he or she is no longer a member of since 2023.
The stakeholders received notification from Uzo-Uwani local government area and Nkpologwu Ward on the suspension of Sen Chuka Utazi for anti-party activities.
The stakeholders endorsed the suspension and mandated the State Executive Committee to ratify the suspension in her next meeting and forward same to the Zonal leadership of the party.
