Breaking News: Ahead 2023, Presidency, APC Reject Ekweremadu's Desperate Move To by Jimzo: 10:50am On Nov 20, 2021
From James Takwa,
(Abuja )

It is no longer news that ahead of 2023 governorship election in Enugu state, where the odds favour Enugu East Senatorial zone to produce the next Governor, ex-deputy Senate President and the senator representing Enugu West Senatorial zone, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, who has been covertly desperate and clandestinely scheming to alter the entrenched and established zoning of the governorship seat in the state which is not in his favour and that of his zone, had been making frantic moves to join the ruling, All Progressives Congress (APC )

Investigations revealed that after the just concluded and hitch-free Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP)national convention, where the PDP governors played key roles in the emergence of national party officers, it dawned on Ekweremadu and his supporters that his 2023 governorship ambition may not see the light of the day in PDP. Ekweremadu who had made moves to join APC before 2019 but was rejected, commenced another desperate moves to join APC with the hope of securing the party's governorship ticket and rely on federal might to win the 2023 gubernatorial election in the state.

Presidency source disclosed that after several failed attempts to have audience with President Muhammadu Buhari and APC national leadership on his desperate plan, Ekweremadu flew to the United Nations Conference on Climate Change at Glasgow uninvited to see if he can have audience with President Buhari who attended the conference and delivered paper.

A close aide of President Buhari, who pleaded anonymity revealed that the President was not disposed to see or talk or do anything with Ekweremadu, because of his desperation and corruption charges hanging on his neck. Besides, the APC national leadership is aware of the entrenched zoning of governorship seat in Enugu State which is not in favor of Ekweremadu's Enugu West Zone

"President Buhari rebuffed all entreaties to see or discuss with Ekweremadu at the Glasgow Climate Change Summit.

"The president and the party National leadership are not disposed to Ekweremadu defecting to APC, considering the corruption baggages he carries and for the fact that the likes of former Senate President Ken Nnamani and other political bigwigs from the state are in APC.

"If Ekweremadu sincerely wants to defect, he should go to his ward and state chapter of APC and not coming to Presidency. It is wrong. Ekweremadu was seen complaining to whoever cares to listen at the Glasgow Conference that President Buhari is not treating him well," the president aide disclosed.

Efforts to reach Senator Ekweremadu on phone proved abortive, but one of his close aides who pleaded anonymity said that there is nothing wrong in their boss's political moves.

"We are aware of the move. That is politics. Our worry is that APC has no stronghold in the Southeast region. Anambra governorship election which we would have leveraged on as a boost didn't help our situation ".

If I believe that story I will believe that my mother was a virgin when she gave birth to me. Current APC to reject Ike Eweremadu who has electoral value and accept Fani Kayode who has no electoral value? Lies from the desk of Liar Muhammad.
