The Enugu state chapter of the ruling All progressive congress APC, has expressed displeasure over the reappointment of former Minister foreign Affairs,  Mr. Geoffrey Onyeama, by president Muhammadu Buhari, describing the development as a "terrible mistake"

It said going by Onyeama's  alleged abysmal performance during the president's first tenure in office, such "character ought not to have any business in the next level second term agenda of the APC led federal executive council.

Reacting Tuesday to the reappointment of Onyeama, whose  name was among the 42 Ministerial nominees sent to the senate by president Buhari, for possible confirmation, Enugu state APC chairman, Dr. Ben Nwoye, said the development was not for the interest of Enugu state and Nigeria in general.

He posited that the ex- foreign Affairs Minister did more harm than good to APC in Enugu state during his first outing as a minister, stressing that he never believed in party supremacy 

According to Nwoye, rather, than joining hands with the leadership of APC in the state to ensure the progress of the party, Onyeama, "was busy wasting tax payers money in sponsoring crisis  and sowing seed of discord .

The chairman, insisted that reappointing the former minister into the federal executive council would further destroy the party in Enugu state, because" this is a man who have penchant for thuggery and pulling down of party structure.

"Aside Enugu state, Nigerians in diaspora, never felt the impact of Oyeama's office for the four years he occupied the foreign Affair's ministry seat, adding that Nigerians were been slaughtered almost on daily basis in parts of the world ,without any comment or reaction from his office.

Nwoye, also called  on the upper chamber of the nation's National Assembly (Senate), to carry out a proper investigation on  the allegation of tax evasion by Onyeama, saying he lied on oath during his screening by the eight  senate.

As if the state party chapter has a say in who should be accepted as a federal minister.

Even Ebonyi gave more votes to Buhari last election.

They suppose appoint two ministers from Ebonyi state Instead of anambra.



Ebonyi needs two ministers not anambra.

That state that couldn’t produce 5 percent for APC

I think Buhari got more votes in Abia than Ebonyin. Plus, APC won a senate seat in Abia. Abia should have gotten the two ministerial slot and not Anambra. With Orji Uzor Kalu’s political clout and Ikpeazu’s woeful performance, APC can win the state in 2023 if the party can put up an aggressive takeover plan.
