ACN Denies Crack In Enugu
The national leadership of Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), has declared that there is no crisis or crack in its Enugu State chapter of the opposition party.
They explained that the recent suspension of the 2011 gubernatorial candidate in the area, Mr. Valentine Nnaedozie, and 21 others was part of measure to instill discipline in the party as well as rid it of bad eggs.
Briefing newsmen on recent developments in the Enugu State chapter of the party, the national ex-officio member representing South East geo – political zone , Comrade Adolphous Udeh, affirmed claims by the Barrister Barth Ugwuoke led leadership (Exco) that prior to the sanction, the suspended members were allegedly being used as instrument of mischief and destabilisation in the party by the PDP.
He however, dismissed rumours that the party is currently experiencing some crack in the coal city state of Enugu, as a fall out of the last congress which produced the incumbent State Working Committee (SWC).
His words: “I want to make it categorically clear that there is nothing like crack or division in the Enugu State chapter of ACN, the present state Exco led by Barrister Barth Ugwuoke was duly elected during a state congress of the party held on April 29, this year at Zodiac Hotel Enugu, and was observed by INEC officials, security operatives and all other relevant bodies as stipulated by law”.
Udeh, who was flanked by the state chairman and secretary, Barrister Ugwuoke and Uche Ogbu , publicity secretary, Rev Emma Ugwu Zion and woman leader, Lolo Queen Nwankwo, during the briefing,, insisted that ACN, remained the only alternative political platform for Nigerian electorate in 2015.
