APC Reacts To Governor Umahi’s Comment That He Belongs To The Party

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ebonyi State has reacted to comment by Governor Dave Umahi of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that he also belonged to APC.

The Governor was quoted to have told the people of Ishielu and Onicha Local Government Areas at the Government House, Abakaliki, on Monday, that he was “100 per cent APC.”

The Chairman of the party, Chief Eze Nwachukwu, who made this known to journalist at the end of the APC State Executive Committee’s meeting on Friday in Abakiliki, called on relevant authorities to investigate the claim.

“The alleged bipartisan claim credited to our dear Governor is capable of jeopardising the nation’s party democracy”, NAN quoted him as saying.

“There is nowhere it is provided in the Electoral Act for a person to belong to two political parties, especially one occupying an executive position.

“So, we view the comment with great concern because it is capable of truncating the country’s democracy,” Nwachukwu said.
