The All Progressives Congress governorship candidate in Imo State and the current Senator representing Orlu zone, Hope Uzodinma, has reacted to the purported expulsion slammed on him by the Governor Rochas Okorocha-led faction of APC over alleged anti-party activities.
DAILY POST had on Thursday, reported that the Imo State gubernatorial candidate, Senator Hope Uzodinma had been expelled by the state chapter of the All Progressives Congress ( APC ), over alleged anti-party activities.
The state chairman of the party, Hon Daniel Nwafor, who announced the expulsion at the party’s secretariat, said that the action became necessary to save the party from disintegration.
However, Senator Uzodinma, in a statement issued by the Media and Publicity of his Campaign Organization, Declan Emelumba, and forwarded to DAILY POST on Thursday evening, dismissed the purported expulsion, describing the actions of Okorocha and his cohorts as “an exercise in futility and therefore void and of no effect whatsoever. There is only one APC in Imo State under the chairmanship of Prince Marcellus Nlemeigbo. That is the party known at the headquarters in Abuja.
“There’s no APC faction in Imo State. So you cannot act from a void. Okorocha and his infantile boys brigade can deluded themselves to high havens but they cannot change the facts.
“They are not members of APC and therefore, as far as APC is concerned, cannot act from a void because they don’t belong to APC.
The so called suspension or whatever of anybody by the Okoracha gang is of no effect, because it’s void and none existent.”
