The Okey Ogbodo-led faction of the party had fired the first salvo with a claim that Senator Ayogu Eze is not the party’s guber candidate for the 2019 general elections.
Ogbodo had said that, “For the avoidance of doubts, the APC flag bearer in Enugu State is Barrister George Tagbo Ogara.”
Irked by such remarks, chairman of the APC in the State, Barr. Ben Nwoye, accused him and Ogara of making themselves willing tools in the hands of the PDP.
However, Ogbodo again attacked Nwoye, stating that he had by every of his actions showed that he was executing a PDP agenda.
In a statement made available to journalists, Ogbodo said, “from assumption of office in 2014, Nwoye has always been a tool of the APC’s destruction in the hands of the PDP.
“That he cannot deny the fact that he, as a major opposition chairman in Enugu State, has never for one day criticized the negative actions of the PDP led government in the State.
“It is also on record that the younger brother of Chris Ibe (Baywood), Ugonna Ibe was appointed caretaker committee chairman of Awgu LGA by the current PDP government. Baywood has been the Chief sponsor of Ben Nwoye. It won’t be surprising that the money generated by Ugonna Ibe as Awgu caretaker chairman, was used to fund Ben Nwoye’s APC leadership in the State.
“The House of Assembly candidates of the APC in the 2015 elections went to court against the PDP government in Enugu State but Ben Nwoye went and withdrew the case in favour of PDP without consulting the candidates that instituted the case.
“With all these barrage of evidence, the press should judge for themselves who is the agent of PDP.”
