"I Was Removed Because I Refused To Join APC" - Ebonyi Assembly Chief Whip

By Wisdom Nwedene, Abakaliki

The Chief Whip of Ebonyi State House of Assembly, Hon. Humphrey Nwuruku, has confirmed that he was removed because he refused to join the All Progressives Congress, APC.

IGBERE TV had reported that Hon. Nwuruku was removed by the Speaker of Ebonyi State House of Assembly, Francis Nwifuru on Monday.


Speaking with IGBERE TV correspondent on Monday following his removal, Hon. Nwuruku said he was removed as the Chief Whip because he refused to join fifteen others to attend APC meetings.


"This is a party affairs. The Honourable Members that are in APC have not defected to APC. They tactically said that they progressives."

"You ask them what is Progressives. They won't be able to answer."

"I'm a Democrat but fifteen of the House of Assembly members had meeting that I should be removed."


"This is because I'm the only principal officer that doesn't attend their meetings. That's why they removed me."


IGBERE TV reports that since Governor David Nweze Umahi of Ebonyi State decamped from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP to APC, many House of Assembly members have refused to join him.

Also, three Senators and five House of Representatives members from Ebonyi State have equally refused to join Umahi to APC.

You would have joined APC if you were wise.

Y'all are the same jumping from one party to another for personal gains.

That you didn't join Apc shouldn't for any reason make anyone see you as a sanctimonious politician.

You are just foolish

Isn't that Nigerian politics?
