…Says Action, A Threat To Unity of APC Edo North, Party Organs And Leaders.
The zonal leader of South Uneme from Etsako Central, Hon Muhammed Okpafi has condemned in totality the purported endorsement of Hon Clem Ikanade Agba as substantive gubernatorial aspirant by Edo North Leaders.
In a statement, Okpafi questioned the right of Hon Alasa Idaro former Etsako West LGA Chairman for orchestrating such move, describing it as threat to APC unity and strength in Edo north.
“What right has Alasa Idaro to convene Edo North leaders meeting leading to endorsement of an aspirant?. Idaro is not the leader of Uzairue APC but just a member of leaders forum where Alhaji Shamac Okwilagwe is the leader.
“Idaro does not have such capacity to do so but the party and this an attempt to undermine Adams Oshiomhole, Malik Afegbua and other notable leaders from Edo north. It’s an aberration and l condemned it in totality in strong term.
Okpafi therefore advise those contesting to engage leaders through consultations of their aspirations.
“If you want to contest for governor, please go about and do your consultation with the leaders and the people. No endorsement for Clem Agba from any quarters and that is my stand.
