group backs Okorocha, Okonkwo on APC

ABUJA—The Central Executive Committee of C21,  a socio-politcal group of South East progressive democrats and mainstream All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA, party faithful have endorsed what they called “the eventual triumph of alliance politics” that gave birth to All Progressive  Congress, APC.

The group after its meetings in Abuja and  Owerri, in a statement said: “We are more than satisfied with the dynamic roles played by Governor Rochas Okorocha and Senator Annie Okonkwo in the emergence of All Progressive Congress, APC.

“Having been aware of the conspiracy of a section of  ‘PDP APGA’ reactionaries to bleed our chosen political platform APGA to death through judicial contrivance, and trade its casket as fair game to their PDP masters,  they have taken the well considered step to protect APGA in the assembly of non-toxic democrats where our unyielding  quest for a Nigerian president of Igbo extraction will receive accelerated attention on merit and not deception.”

The group then called on every APGA member and admirer to be patient, saying “programmed whirlwind from ‘APGA PDP’  tradesmen will soon  unravel because the beginning of their end has started with the berthing of APC.

“We are aware that consultations among the ranks of our teaming members have not been  exhaustive. We   will soon embark on nationwide consultation, mobilisation and mediations to cure this defect.”
