I can’t leave APC for ADC, Nwosu dispels rumour

Former Imo state governorship candidate and foundation member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ugwumba Uche Nwosu, has vowed not to leave the ruling party for the opposition African Democratic Congress (ADC).

He described those spreading the rumour of his carpet crossing as daydreamers, whose dreams were nothing but a mirage.

The former Chief of Staff to former Governor Rochas Okorocha made this declaration after revalidating his membership of the governing APC at the party’s ongoing e-registration exercise in his ward, Eziama Obaire, Nkwerre Local Government Area of Imo State.

In a statement personally signed by Nwosu and issued in Abuja to newsmen on Monday, the APC chieftain said as a founding member of the party, he had no intention of leaving a house he helped to build.

He also reaffirmed that the former Governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, and other members of the Rescue Mission team remain committed members of the APC.

Dispelling the rumour, Nwosu said, “I remain a committed member of the APC. I will not abandon a house I helped to build,” he reportedly said, reaffirming his loyalty to the ruling party.”

Accompanied by a large crowd of supporters and party faithful, Nwosu called on his supporters and the people of the area to come out en masse to register with the APC and actively support the party at all levels, from the grassroots to the federal level.

He emphasized the importance of political participation and awareness, urging citizens to stay informed and involved in shaping their political future.

The event drew the presence of several party leaders and stakeholders, including his Ward Chairman and other ward executives, the Ward Councillor, the President General of Eziama Obaire, and the Director General and executives of the Ugwumba Movement.

Also in attendance were the Eze-elect of Eziama Obaire and former Executive Chairmen from Nkwerre, Orsu, and Isu Local Government Areas.

The gathering further signalled continued grassroots mobilization efforts within the APC in Imo State ahead of future political activities.
