Hoodlums invade Buhari’s campaign office in Enugu by MichaelSokoto(op): 11:02pm On Feb 18, 2015
Armed thugs on Wednesday invaded the state
campaign office of the All Progressives Congress
presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu
Buhari(retd.), with several persons sustaining
injuries.
Although, details of the incident were still sketchy as
of the time of filing this report, our correspondent
gathered that it was not unconnected with an earlier
crisis that rocked the state chapter of the party after
some members were accused of embezzling funds
meant for Buhari’s rally in Enugu.
The APC Youth Leader in the state, Mr. Iyke Oloto,
who was reportedly beaten up and taken away by the
thugs, later circulated an SMS, accusing the party’s
governorship candidate, Mr. Okey Ezea, of
sponsoring the attack.
The text message, which he sent to the national
chairman of the party, was also forwarded to
journalists.
The SMS read, “My National Chairman sir, greetings
of the season.
“Please my name is Prince Ike Oloto, state youth
leader and a state working committee member,
Enugu State.
“I want to inform you of the injustice and
discrimination done to us by our state chairman and
guber candidate, Mr. Okey Ezea.
“Sir, our consistent demand to know the financial
status of our party APC and insisting that our State
SWC and SEC are carried along in the state, some of
us including my humble self, is either suspended,
excluded or sidelined in party affairs.
“My name was removed and replaced in BCO.
“More so, Barr Ezea guber candidate has been bought
and settled by PDP with N600m.
“Right now, Barr Okey Ezea, is sabotaging APC as
saboteur and PDP mole.
“All GMB funds and logistics to Enugu State has been
dubiously channelled to his private account and not
utilised.
“Mark my word Sir and quote me.
“Your true servant, Prince Ike Oloto.”
Efforts to get Ezea, and the chairman of the APC in
Enugu State, Dr. Ben Nwoye, to react to the
development were unsuccessful at of the time of filing this report.

READ CAREFULLY. It's an intra-party thing.

Little wonder this thread died so quickly.
