He said the APC’s stance against corrupt associates of the administration of Mr. Jonathan was established as such the and must be prosecuted.
“As a decent state executive, we consider the attempt to make the APC a dumping ground unacceptable.
“APC in the state will not allow the party to become a dumping ground for desperate looters and thieves in need of protection from prosecution.
“We call on President Muhammadu Buhari to order a detailed investigation into the acts of fraud and embezzlement by these defectors and their associates.

“We support the moves by Buhari for the prosecution of former President Goodluck Jonathan, his wife, Patience Jonathan and his known associates for the looting and associated crimes committed against the state,” Mr. Kpodo said,
He urged potential defectors to obtain clearance at the ward through to the state level of the party.
He said defectors must show clear record of performance from the parent party before official presentation to the loyalists and progressive supporters of the APC.

Mr. Kpodo said the APC would soon release a timetable of events of the party to receive its teeming supporters, defectors and that the processes for primary election of the party.
