Most Distinguished Senator Peter Nwaoboshi has dismissed claims made by the APC Delta North Senatorial District Chairman, Ogbueshi Adizue Eluaka JP; that he has dissolved Delta North APC Local Government and Ward Chairmen forum, based on their recent disowning purported endorsement of Senator Ned Nwoko for second term, because they clearly stated that their only valid and collective endorsements are for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, and Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.
Senator Nwaoboshi emphasized that the APC chairmen forum can only be dissolved constitutionally, and accused Chief Eluaka of operating like a neophytes in politics, what is his fear in dissolving Delta North APC Local Government Chairmen Forum? is it because seven out the nine APC local government chairmen from Delta North refused to endorse a particular candidate? He has no such power because we have Governor’s forum body in Nigeria and APC Progressive Governor’s forum neither President nor APC National Chairman dissolved them. It is too early for any democratic party to endorse a particular candidate at this juncture.
In a statement to the press in Asaba, Senator Nwaoboshi, asserted that Chief Eluaka does not have the authority to dissolve the chairmen forum, adding that his statements have no validity. He noted that Eluaka is now trying to turn himself to a political emperor of Delta North APC .
Senator Nwaoboshi also recalled that Chief Eluaka and his group hurriedly endorsed Senator Ned Nwoko few days ago for second term without due consultation with APC Delta North stake holders and hierarchy.
According to Senator Nwaoboshi, the decision to dissolve both local and Ward chairmen forum by Ogbueshi Eluaka was occasioned by acts of gross misconduct and shameful to our great party. He wondered the kind of impetus that sparked his memory into loose entity of releasing a baseless facts that can create problem for our dear party.
He alleged that Eluaka acted in clear breach of the party’s Constitution and he need to reverse his statement immediately before the situation snowballs into a major political crisis in the party.
“Sadly, in total disregard and disobedience to the prevailing APC constitution, Chief Eluaka has continued in his acts of crass lawlessness, contemptuous disregard of party rules, abuse of processes, and misuse of executive power, which dangerously portends the extermination of constitutional democracy in the APC Delta North ,” Nwaoboshi explained.
APC is not a personal property of anybody but a party for everyone, So his statement is unacceptable and should be disregarded by APC Delta North and general public, Senator Nwaoboshi urges all APC members to remain united and disciplined .
