Akwa Ibom Apc Crisis Deepens, by rooftech: 6:26am On Aug 13, 2015
AKWA IBOM APC SECRETARIAT LOCKED DOWN AS CRISIS DEEPENS
UMANA MUST RETURN TO PDP-AGGRIEVED STAKEHOLDERS
The last may not have been heard of the crisis rocking the APC in Akwa Ibom State, following the barricade of its secretariat by aggrieved members. Newsmen, gathered that the secretariat was locked on Saturday by 41 stakeholders following the decision of the party state working committee to boycott the reconciliation committee meeting in Abuja held by Mr. Segun Oni, National vice Chairman -South and Kayode Fayemi, former Ekiti state Governor, and also to swear in handpicked men as chapter chairmen against party constitution.
Addressing newsmen on behalf of the 41 as regards the reasons for their actions Rt.Hon Emmanuel Andy noted that the party had been in peace, until the arrival of the APC Guber Candidiate Umana Okon Umana and his gang, whom he described as frustrated PDP members under the leadership of Godswill Obot Akpabio,he accused Umana of creating confusion in the party causing disaffection and sponsoring crisis in a way that looks as if he was planted to destabilize the party.
The once united party is so factionalized, how can someone still in election tribunal seeking a rerun suspend 41 elected elders of the party who he came to see and replace them with unelected appointees, he fumed.
Rt. Hon Andy said the election funds of Umana came from the National body as he brought no money into the party, and it was not, judiciously used but spent on propaganda and mischief, when we protested this abnormality that opposition politics is far beyond peddling rumors, you must work to succeed you must carry everyone along and not create enemies.
The state chairman and secretary issued them with suspension notices with all sorts of allegations ranging from anti party activities to wrongful release of information two weeks ago,we wrote to the body to complain, they fixed a date last Tuesday 4th August but they did not come. It was fixed again for next week, but instead of them to wait for the issue to be resolved, they came to swear in new people to replace us that is why we took the action. We have to take what belongs to us, no illegality happened. All security agencies were fully informed. Police as it stands, have since taken over the premises.
