APGA gets new executives

Umeh bows out

A new national leadership has emerged in the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), thereby drawing a curtain on Victor Umeh’s 10 years leadership of the party.

The new executive committee has Victor Oye and former Minister of Information, Labaran Maku as chairman and secretary respectively.

They were elected and sworn into office at a national convention held last Saturday in Awka.

Speaking while handing over the secretariat to the new executives on Wednesday, Umeh said he had every reason to thank God that his leadership was able to navigate the party out of the troubles it faced.

While noting that his leadership won all the court cases involving it, Umeh said he would not like the political climate in the party to degenerate any further.

He said, “We are happy to have two veteran journalists taking over as chairman and secretary

“The exco taking over will not inherit serious litigation. We are very certain we have elected capable hands to take over from us. We are confident that they will deliver the party to greater heights

“We are confident that with the foundation that we have laid, APGA would play very important roles in the political history of this country.”

In his remark, Oye said the new executive committee would build the party into a strong political movement.

He vowed that the new leadership will not tolerate any form of indiscipline in the party and would work within the tenets of the constitution.
