Hoodlums working for Anambra serial governorship aspirant attack APC registration unit

Hoodlums suspected to be working for a serial governorship aspirants in Anambra State have attacked the venue of the ongoing membership registration and revalidation at Ajalli in Orumba North Local Government Area .

They reportedly inflicted bodily harm on some party supporters as well as on members of the party's Registration and Revalidation Committee for the local government.

The APC youth leader in Orumba North, Ejike Kanu was beaten black and blue for refusal to hand over the registration materials to the thugs.

" He was rushed to a private hospital in a very critical condition", a source stated.

Another source said, "The thugs attacked Mr Ejike Kanu who, for the past two days, refused to be compromised or allow the materials to be diverted.

"He insisted that as members of the committee, they were under instructions not to allow anybody take control of the materials, which did not go down well with the thugs.
"The state caretaker committee chairman and members of the national registration committee were not left out as the thugs manhandled them.

" Following the beating he received, Ejike Kanu was rushed to hospital where he is receiving medical attention."

The story in Oyi Local Government Area was not different as fracas characterised the distribution of materials in the area

A member of the party in the area said, " materials were yet to be distributed by members of the registration committee because of the fear of violence and attack, while that of Ogbaru local government is still at the Atani Police Station in the local government."

Also, materials for Onitsha North were yet to be received in the area as of press time as there were fears that some thugs were threatening to disrupt the exercise if the materials were not handed over to their leaders.

An APC chieftain who spoke in confidence said some of the governorship aspirants became interested in the registration and revalidation exercise because there were reports that the party might adopt direct primaries in which case all registered members of the party would be allowed to vote for the nomination of the party's candidate for the November election.
