All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, Imo state chapter has debunked a news story in local newspaper that the mass defection of politicians from opposition parties is creating cracks within the party and that the state Chairman is having running battles with BOT members from the state.
The party said that the rumour of squabbles is absolutely unfounded and can only be the fabrication of confusionists who are envious of the growing profile of the state. The party said that contrary to the bad wishes of opposition parties, IMO APGA is happy with her new like the Alex Obi group which have added values to the party, assuring that there is no crack within the chapter.
The refutation of the report was made yesterday, Monday in Owerri by the state Publicity Secretary, Dr George Nkwoji, in a statement released to the press. According to him, Imo APGA is more united than ever before and has continued to grow from strength to strength under the visionary leadership of legal luminary, Barrister Peter Ezeobi. Dr Nkwoji stated that the clarification became necessary in order to allay fears of members of the party and her teeming supporters in the state. The Imo Spokesman said that it is laughable to insinuate that BOT has a role in the running of the party and therefore blamed it on idle mindedness.
While dismissing the falsehood with a wave of the hand, Dr George Nkwoji called on members of the public to ignore such misleading information, adding that Imo APGA is focused on the onerous task of winning the 2019 general elections and therefore has no time distractions.
