As crises continue to rock the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo State, one of its factions has removed the suspended State Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr. Christian Azebamwan.
In a statement, by the State Assistant Secretary, Ikuenobe Anthony Esq, Azebamwan’s removal was reached at the end of the meeting of the State Executive Committee which include Local Government Area (LGA) Party Chairmen.
The party also nominated Rev. Joseph Osagiede as replacement for the sacked Publicity Secretary pending the next congress of the party.
Ihuenobe said the decision is in line with the provision of Article 17 (vi) of APC Constitution 2014 as amended.
He said the Meeting held on the 16th of December, 2019 at the party’s Secretariat in Benin City, the Edo State capital.
According to him, the party also “unanimously nominated Hon. Osamudiame Edekere and Rev. Joseph Osagiede to act as State Secretary until next congress.”
With the development, Osamudiame Edekere took the place of ex-secretary, Mr. Lawrence Okah, who was recently suspended from the party in the State.
