The state chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Abia State Chapter, Prince Nnanna Ukaegbu has lambasted the deputy national chairman South of APGA, Uchenna Okogbuo over comment credited to him.
Okogbuo was reported in an interview he granted recently to have claimed the party does not recognise Ukaegbu as the state chairman of APGA.
Responding swiftly, Ukaegbu said it was unfortunate that Okogbuo who was a party to the Suit wherein the Court of Appeal, Owerri Division pronounced him (Ukaegbu) as the state chairman, could make such statement.
Ukaegbu said he was not surprised that Okogbuo could make such comment since he did not for “a single day have the courage to appear before the court to canvass the arguments he is now trumpeting before the media”.
Ukaegbu taunting Okogbuo said, “Having lost in court it’s now convenient for him to come to the public space to make noise where he cannot be interrogated, cross-examined.
“He ran APGA Abia State Chapter in the period he shamelessly flaunt in disobedience of a valid court order”.
Ukaegbu said Okogbuo’s comment and support for Ehiemere was to make the latter soft pedal on his petition against the former to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over some financial wrong doings in the state chapter of the party.
Ukaegbu counseled Okogbuo to challenge the court decision affirming him as the state chairman of APGA Abia State Chapter if he disagrees with the decision rather than needlessly blowing hot air in the media.
