Aforka debunks alleged factions in APGA Orumba North

The Transition Chairman of the Orumba North Local Government Area of Anambra State, Hon. Emeka Aforka has debunked insinuations in some quarters that his party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the local government is fractionalized.

Speaking to newsmen in his office at Ajalli, Hon. Aforka stated that there was only one local government party chairman and local government party executive in the local government alas at the ward level wondering what the news about fractionalization of the party in the local government was coming from when all the indices of fractionalization was lacking in the local government.

He clarified that the party being blessed with two prominent sons of Orumba North namely; Chief Okey Ezeibe and Chief Okwudili Ezenwankwo as members and leaders of the party both at the local government, state and national level and the fact that these men were philanthropic and open to receive party members at their homes whenever they were in town should not be seen as fractionalizing the party in the local government.

According to him,” Let me quickly disagree with you, APGA in Orumba North has no faction and I want to clear you on that. We have only one local government party Chairman, one local government executive and members of APGA in this local government. There is no faction in the wards, there is no political ward you go to and find two persons operating as factional Chairmen. So, that was why I said that I disagreed with you”.

When reminded about the power play between the duo of Chief Okey Ezeibe and Chief Okwudili Ezenwankwo over who leads the party in the local government, he retorted,“I disagree with you, that is not faction. When you see a party that is growing like APGA, when big men are in the party, they will try to make sure that the party members are happy. They make the party alive, it is not faction. Okey Ezeibe is the BoT member of APGA, we have two BoT members of APGA in Orumba North. This local government is a very lucky local government and it is a thing of joy that we have two persons from this local government in the APGA BoT. There are some local governments in Anambra state that has not produced a single person in the national executive of the party but in Orumba North alone, we have two BoT members, Okey Ezeibe is one of them, Hon. Dr. Okey Udeh is another BoT member.

“Okwudili Ezenwankwor is a major stakeholder of APGA, mind you, he is the Chairman of the traders in Anambra State, he is also the Chairman of traders in the South East and there was a time he was appointed the acting National President of all the traders in this country. So, for him to be a member of this party, every weekend, all our party members will go to his house, Nanka people will go to his place, you can’t call it faction.

“Okey Ezeibe as a BoT member of APGA is a rich man, if he is around, APGA members will go to his house, people will go to his house, eat and drink. So, it is making our party alive in the local government, I don’t see it as a faction. We have only one party structure, the local government party Chairman is one, we don’t have two. So, when you see our big men showing generosity, people classify that as faction, it is not faction.

“Okey Ezeibe and Ewepudike have never for one day exchanged words, they have never for one day quarrel, they have never for one day told anybody that this person is against him”.
