 Ebonyi South APC  Senate Nomination: Ex-aspirant Expelled From Party For Opposing Gov Umahi

 Ebonyi South APC  Senate Nomination: Ex-aspirant Expelled From Party For Opposing Gov Umahi

  Mrs. Ann Agom-Eze  , who  had sought  to get nominated by the APC  for the  2023 Ebonyi South senate election, has been expelled from the party.

Team@orientactualmags.com learned the party cited  rebellious and unruly behaviour.

This was contained in a statement issued in Abakaliki on Sunday by the chairman of the party in the state, Stanley Okoro-Emegha.

A Federal High Court in Abakaliki had  on 22 July, ordered a rerun of Ebonyi South APC senate primary election  after one of the contenders, Austine Umahi, who is   Governor Umahi’s younger brother, had  announced that he was backing out of the   senate race.

APC  later conducted a fresh primary election on 31 July  and had  Governor Umahi  announced  as  candidate nominated by the party.

It will be recalled that Governor Dave Umahi had sought  to get the APC presidential nomination and had stood as a candidate in the presidential primary election held on  June 8, 2022 at the Eagle Square, Abuja,

Former governor of Lagos state, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu however won the party’s presidential nomination.

Mr Okoro-Emegha said on Sunday that Mrs. Agom-Eze rebelliously lost her membership by violating APC Constitution, which prohibits any act of dishonesty capable of disparaging the party or its member(s).

He added that Mrs Agom-Eze  had  initially gotten  expelled by the executives of  APC in Umudomi Ward,  Onicha Local Government area of the state.

‘The chairman of APC, Ebonyi South Zone, Mr Ernest Nwazi through a motion, expelled Agom-Eze from the party, citing rebellious and unruly behaviour.

The chairman stated also that she fundamentally violated some sections of the party’s Constitution.

Agom-Eze has recklessly disparaged herself by eating back her words in an effort to satisfy her paymasters.

Since her expulsion started from her ward, I cannot interfere with the decision because politics is a grassroots engagement.

We are well- schooled in her antics as she is being bankrolled by the opposition party’ he added-Team@orientactualmags.com
