Enugu APC crisis: Why Agballah wants to suspend Onyeama, Chime, others – Party chieftain, Eze

The Enugu State Media Director of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Independent Campaign Council (ICC), Mr. Flavour Eze has disclosed that the Chairman of the party state, Mr. Ugochukwu Agballah has concluded plans to suspend major leaders of the party in the state.

Eze named the leaders Agballah wants to suspend to include the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr. Geoffrey Onyeama, former Governor of the state, Mr. Sullivan Chime; himself, Eze, among others.

He alleged that Agballah had subsequently convened a meeting on Friday (today) at the party’s zonal office in Enugu, where he hopes to execute his last brand of tyranny in the party.

Eze, however, said that “the gloating of Ugochukwu Agballah has been APC’s albatross in Enugu state”, stressing that the foundation members of the party were unfazed by Agballah’s recent unbridled verbal and media attacks on Onyeama, former President of the Senate, Senator Ken Nnamani and other founding members of the party.

He described Agballah’s antics as “rantings of a frail and sapped politician of yesteryears.”

Eze, an APC leader in Udi Local Government Area, said that it was such a pity that Agballah who claims to be chairman of the party, rather than engage in canvassing votes for the party, chose to engage in imaginary fisticuffs as smokescreen for his alleged incompetence and corrupt management of the party in the state.

The party chieftain said, “Agballah is a joker who sees a political party as conduit for business as usual, rather than his core mandate of adminstration and mobilisation of electorates for elections.”

He further alleged that Agballah made good his business and gave opposition parties in the state victory in exchange for porridge he bargained for and turned around to blame the founding leaders of the party for his incapacity.

“These are people you said that you don’t need but should give way so that when you emerge Governor, they can come back. Have you won now? And you say it’s the leaders. So why didn’t you do it without us?

In 2003, Ugo, who is not a good follower, went into governorship voyage. He failed woefully, repeated same failure in 2007, till he was mistakenly brought to APC where he has now exposed his frustration, avarice and ineptitude. So why lean on us?

“You people claimed you had all the wherewithal to finance the party and that everybody should give way for you to actualise your dream, so why attack us?” Eze queried.

He stated that Agballah failed to vote for the governorship candidate of the APC on the March 18 election, and wondered who else could have voted for the candidate when the state chairman of the party betrayed the party’s mandate.
