Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Enugu State, on Thursday, reaffirmed their stand on the earlier zoning arrangement agreed upon by members of the party in the state.
It could be recalled that the party had been battling a leadership crisis in the state culminating into the emergence of two factions.
However, the APC in the State, which has the likes of Mr Osita Okechukwu, Dr Ben Nwoye, Emperor Baywood Ibe, among others, have continued to insist that the position of the State chairman of the party was zoned to the Greater Awgu, in Enugu West Senatorial Zone, whereas Barr. Ugochukwu Agballah, who is also laying claim to the position is from Udi Local Government Area.
In a communique issued after their meeting in Enugu, the stakeholders from Enugu West said there was no going back on the zoning arrangement.
It was signed by Comrade Ac Ude, Hon Tony Ibekwe, Mrs Kate Offor, Lolo Queen Nwankwo, Ebubeagu Felix Okafor and all the Local Government Chairmen of APC in Enugu West.
The communique read in part, “That we adopt the advice of our leader, Osita Okechukwu, who asked us not to be against harmonization, but to exercise patience and wait for the emergence of new national officers, so that, the outcome of any harmonization will be effected in the database
