Imo: Crisis hits APGA over alliance arrangement with APC

Crisis has crept in the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Imo state following ongoing alliance talks with the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Already, the Legal Adviser of APGA, Ifeanyi Olumba, has resigned his position.

The politician, who communicated his resignation to the party on Monday, said that he refused to be part of the political alliance between his party, and APC

Olumba, a former Transition Committee Chairman of the Orlu Local Government Area of the state, said his conscience would not permit him to be part of any political arrangement between his party and the immediate past governor of the state, Rochas Okorocha.

While conveying the reason for his resignation to APGA,  Olumba said, “I refused to be part of an alliance that is associated with Rochas Okorocha.

 “Therefore, as the Legal Adviser of the All Progressives Grand Alliance here in Imo State, I resign my position.”

The leader of APGA in the state, Senator Ifeanyi Araraume, visited Okorocha at his residence at Ogboko in the Ideato South LGA of the state during the festive period.

The action fueled speculations that the APGA and the APC wanted to form an alliance against the Peoples Democratic Party-led government in the state.
