2019: APC Reps aspirant dumps party, picks SDP governorship ticket

-
A House of Representatives aspirant, Mr. Ndubuisi Chibueze-Agbo, who contested for Ohaukwu/Ebonyi Federal Constituency under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ebonyi State has joined the Social Democratic Party (SDP).



Chibueze, who is a former commissioner of Education under the former governor, Chief Martin Elechi’s administration announced his exit from his former party at a rally held in Ngbo, Ohaukwu local government area of Ebonyi.
Agbo at the rally also received the SDP’s endorsement to fly the party’s flag in the 2019 governorship election in Ebonyi.
According to him, his decision to quit his former party, APC was due to injustice and lack of internal party democracy which had bedevilled the party.
“Truly, my resignation from my former party, the APC is because the party is bedevilled with lack of internal democracy, injustice and fraught with irregularities, calumny and political atrocities.
“We made personal sacrifices, formed a merger and paddled a common boat propelled with a vision to emancipate the good people of our dear state but some political ‘Judases’ in a bid to push their own selfish interest betrayed our trust.
“They dashed the hope of our people and returned vanity for our collective costly labour and efforts.
“I became disenchanted and disappointed at the lack of healthy party politics and healthy internal party democracy in APC, the hollowness of the party executive as well as deliberate and wanton disregard to party rules and guidelines.
“Indeed, the APC we laboured for at the risk of our personal comforts and investments is now converted to an ‘auction’ market where the highest bidder takes it all.
“Consequently, things fell apart in the party and those of us whose vision for a better Ebonyi cannot be shattered left the party not for personal gains but for the over-riding interest of our dear state”.
The SDP gubernatorial candidate explained that he was in the party to champion the cause of repositioning Ebonyi for the good and wellbeing of the citizenry.
“Today and now, I sincerely offer myself to you for your indispensable support as we make our vision, our mission and our dream a reality of forming the next government of Ebonyi where I shall serve you as the governor”, he added.
Chibueze-Agbo said that his government would focus on five cardinal areas, including education, health, security, agriculture, youths and women empowerment if elected.
The state Chairman of SDP, Austin Nweze, while handing the party’s flag to him, described him as a bridge-builder and versatile politician.

How Osinbajo has saved APC, Buhari – Dele Momodu warns against dumping VP

Media Mogul, Dele Momodu on Tuesday said Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is the reason some Nigerians still have hope in President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration. Momodu stated this while describing Osinbajo as pillar of APC administration who has made significant achievement in the past few years. He noted that Nigerians would not have noticed the weakness of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration if Yemi Osinbajo was made to perform professionally, citing his period while as acting president. He, however, pointed out that Osinbajo has not been able to perform at his best because of “banal politics of parochialism in the country.” Momodu on his Twitter page wrote: “I love our Vice President PROFESSOR YEMI OSINBAJO for many reasons, smart, intelligent, cerebral, God-fearing, energetic, and so on… He is one of the reasons many of us placed high hopes in the BUHARI Government. “He and a few others have made significant contributions to the modest achievements of this...
