THE crises rocking the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) appear to have assumed a new dimension, with alleged plans by the national headquarters to discipline some top members, including Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi over last Saturday’s meeting in Enugu, which it described as illegal and anti-party. This was disclosed in Awka on Thursday by the Special Adviser to the party’s National Chairman, Chief Victor Umeh, on Inter-party Affairs, Dr. Austine Ndigwe. Others who may face the party’s disciplinary panel include Dr. Tim Menakaya, a member of the party’s Board of Trustees (BoT), Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu and others who attended the meeting which Ndigwe described as “unfortunate, disappointing and illegal.” The meeting was held at the Enugu residence of the late standard bearer of the party, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu by some members of the party, led by Obi, Menakaya and Mrs. Ojukwu. Ndigwe said that neither Obi, Mrs. Ojukwu nor Menakaya have the constitutional right, under APGA’s constitution, to call a meeting where members of the National Executive Committee (NEC), National and state assemblies as well as key stakeholders of the party would be mandated to attend, like they did. The party’s National Secretary, Alhaji Sani Abdullahi Shinkarfi corroborated Ndigwe’s views. He questioned Menakaya’s right to call for the recent meeting of the party in the south east and the usual claim by some people that APGA is an Igbo party. “This party does not belong to any Igbo man, it not a tribal or sectional party but a national party. This party belongs to us and not a singular tribe in Nigeria. In the Northern part of this country, we are the determinant factor because we host the highest number of delegates either in PDP ACN or CPC”. [size=14pt] “The Northern part of this country plays a determining role on who will be the leader of a party because the issue of democracy is a game of numbers and in the northern part of this country, we have the number, we can checkmate anybody in this party with our numbers. In a democracy, it is the people that count. In anything concerning any political party, we have 19 states and the Eastern part of this country has five states.[/size] What I will agree with any Igbo man is that APGA has more formidable structures in Igboland,” Shinkarfi said. On his part, Ndigwe insisted that Menakaya remains a member of the BoT and nothing more, saying the position of Deputy Chairman of the BoT which he was arrogating to himself, was mere wishful thinking and is unknown to the party’s constitution or members. Ndigwe said Menakaya’s membership of the BoT expires in January 2013 and may not be renewed, while the renewed tenure of the National Chairman, Chief Victor Umeh who was given a fresh mandate during the June 2011 National Convention at Awka which was attended by Obi, Menakaya, Mrs Ojukwu and Sylvester Nwobu-Alor, would expire in June 2015. He said Menakaya only joined APGA recently from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) where he served as the Minister of Health during the tenure of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, hence he is not in a position to grandstand as a founding member of APGA. Ndigwe who is also the Special Assistant to Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State on Public Affairs, said the whole stakeholders as well as the state and national assembly members of the party have just passed a vote of implicit confidence on Umeh and his leadership, adding that that was why no one of them as well as other reputed members of the party attended the Enugu meeting last Saturday. http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=87998:apga-may-sanction-obi-menakaya-bianca-over-meeting-&catid=1:national&Itemid=559 |

Rubbish on top of rubbish. This is just victor umeh faffing around as usual. There's beef between him and the peter obi faction, so I guess this statement is designed to isolate them. As for the party belonging to the north it could be that umeh has sold out now that ikemba has passed on. Peter obi and co are pro-GEJ while Umeh and the rest are flirting with the northern elite |

Rhino.5dm: What are you laughing at my friend. The Shinkafi dude is smoking some cheap crack for saying this:
The core North has 7 + 6 states(with dubious population) = 13 states Core East has 5+ 4 (heavily populated states) =9 states The ultimate truth is that the core North is NOT more populated than Core East. When we get ready to rumble, they would be challenged to prove that they are more in number. I desperately want PDP to die because only then can truth start to emerge in Nigeria. If anybody thinks he can hijack APGA, they are goofy because the people make the party, not the other way round. If they kill APGA, we shall raise another party and move there. My main concern is that we must leave PDP.  1 Like |

Apga is clearly trying to be an igbo party....but how come shinkafi is a member of the party? It is not a crime to have an ethnic party...but it is a crime when you try to sell an ethnic party as a national party......the greatest mistake igbos will make is to try and behave like yorubas in politics.....it is not their way and can never be their way....they are republican and competitive....this is why the British trusted them the least... Yorubas in spite of their so called education will vote clannishly for anything with a yoruba stamp....notice that the only time they ever voted for a party with a national spread was when the president was a yoruba..after he left the seat..they quickly returned back to their voting ways... Apga is an attempt to behave like the yoruba.....but i dont think the igbos can be cowed to vote clannishly. 3 Likes |

The Alhaji Sani Abdullahi Shinkarfi of a man has regurgitated what I have been saying about democracy as a game of numbers. If the northern region, as a unit, has the number, it is a determinant factor on who becomes the flag bearer of any political party in the country baring any other underlying factor. Anybody Igbo man who argues against additional state for southeastern zone to match the number of states in the northern zones has no case against the ranting of Shinkarfi. 1 Like |

afam4eva: This northerners are biting more than they can chew. They want to bring their madness to APGA. I dey laugh. Afam4eva, you have disappointed me no be small here; reading some of your recent posts, I was thinking (wrongly ?) that you were making conscious efforts to steer away from the self-destructive path of ethnic bigotry - for your own personal good (as I have successfully done, Alhamdu lil-Lah!). And I was even crediting Sam Ikenna with this noticeable improvement in the quality of your posting of recent, but alas, you still seem to enjoy basking in ethnic bigotry and stereotyping! For goodness sake, how could the comments of one Northern politician that is barely known even in the North, on the internal issues of a political party that is virtually non-existent in the North as APGA, warrant your ethnic tirade and insult against the Northerners?. The crass ethnic bigotry you shamelessly displayed here stinks to the highest heveans, afam! If you can not be as free from cheap ethnic bigotry as Sam Ikenna, at least try to be as smart and intelligent in your attacks against other ethnic groups (by looking for a stronger justification for such insults) as your senior Igbo brothers on NL, such as[b] Dede1[/b] and Logic Mind.

This what you get by chest-beating all the time.. Truth be told, Northerners don't rate Igbos, period... You guys wonder why Buhari never campaigned in the east during the last election?? He knows you guys are negligible, irrelevant, and willing tools that can be phucked in the arse; batty up and face down.. Ndigbos have been in political disarray since ZIK left this planet (and Zik got his game from Herbert Macaulay). You guys need to go back to the drawing board and learn the basics of politics again.. Till you accept to be junior partners to the SW in Nigerian politics, and form a formidable southern alliance, you will continue to be lackeys for the Northerners.. #JustSaying. 1 Like |
