*Says he wants to subvert the zoning arrangement after holding political office for 24 years

The Chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Enugu State, Chief Ugochukwu Agballa, has said that the party would give its Governoship ticket to former Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu.

Addressing a press conference on his claim of APC’s readiness to take over Enugu State, Agballa said Ekweremadu had been wooing the national leadership of the party so as to be handed over Enugu governorship ticket.

Agballa who spoke on Sunday at the APC zonal office, Enugu, disclosed that he had discussions with Ekweremadu “just like other of my friends in PDP. But he asked for the guber ticket.”

The APC Chairman said it’s not possible. “Even after the primary, I’m surprised. His demand is repugnant to natural justice. It’s Ignoble. It’s evil and we shall resist it.

“He is in court claiming he was subverted in the PDP and now running up and down asking to contravene the electoral act.

“He is putting pressure on the National Chairman. He is not a member. Nobody can give him a waiver to subvert what we have done.“We cannot give him our Governoship ticket.

“I see him as one of the heroes of the electoral act.

“The Governorship position is not even for his zone. 

“In the party he was a leader. Now he want to subvert our system. What kind of a man is Ekweremadu? Who is Ekweremadu?

“I will not allow hawks to destroy what we have done. Ekweremadu has been in government for 24 years, he should support others for once”, Agballa stressed.
