2019 GOVERNORSHIP RACE: OKOROCHA’S SON-IN-LAW DUMPS ALL PROGRESSIVES CONGRESS
Following the development, the son-in-law who is the Chief of Staff to the Governor, resolved to pull out from the ruling party, and made the disclosure on Tuesday, at the Sam Mbakwe International Cargo Airport, Owerri, shortly after his arrival from Abuja.
Penpushing further reports that, Nwosu reportedly said”the APC forced him out”, adding that, “injustice, impunity, and lack of respect for party’s constitution forced me out of the All Progressives Congress,”.
When contacted Nwosu’s spokesperson, Sam Onwuemeodo, said:”Mr Nwosu is an adult and can decide to leave the APC if he wishes to. He is an adult. After he won the election and they (APC) denied him and gave it to somebody, who did not even participate in the primary election then what do you expect him to do, he is an adult,” he said. “He must go somewhere else to pursue his ambition.”
Penpushing recalled that the son-in-law of the Governor lost the party’s Governorship ticket to a Senator, Hope Uzodinma, but boasted that the entire All Progressives Congress (APC) structure, ”except those supporting the senatorial ambition of Governor Rochas Okorocha, had defected to Action Alliance(AA).
