APGA in dissarray and Ultimate demise as planned and as being executed

Sani shinkafi has dumped the Peter Obi faction of the party led by embattled Maxi Okwu as Acting National Chairman, and has since returned to the faction of the party led by the embattled sacked chairman, Victor Umeh.

Less than 24 hours after what has been described as an 'illegal' appointment as acting secretary of APGA, Sani shinkafi has dumped the Peter Obi faction of the party led by embattled Maxi Okwu as Acting National Chairman, and has since returned to the faction of the party led by the embattled sacked chairman, Victor Umeh.

Shinkafi, who appeared with Umeh on a national television today distanced himself from the Okwu-led APGA faction, alleging that his membership to the faction was forged.

He stressed that he remains with the Umeh faction of the party, where he also functions as secretary.

Meanwhile, an implacable source revealed that shinkafi was present at the Obi faction's meeting held at Chelsea hotel Abuja last Saturday, where he was appointed acting secretary, a position he accepted.

It was reliably gathered that shinkafi dumped the office and the faction and return to the Umeh faction following the inability of Obi to pay him the amount of money he demanded from the governor.

Meanwhile, Umeh who is receiving the kind treatment of nemesis, has vowed not only to challenge his sack, but promise to fight it out with Maxi.

Umeh as Okwu to, within 24 hours, reject the appointment of face him.

Umeh said it is a shame to the bar, that Okwu, who holds a Master Degree in law will engage in such illegality.

As reported yesterday, the Sadeeq Masalla faction of the party, addressed the press in Abuja today, and distanced itself from the illegality of the Maxi Okwu appointed.

Both Umeh and Masalla at their separate press conferences in Abuja today, said that Maxi Okwu was expelled from APGA in 2004 on the grounds of anti-party activities and alleged stealing of party funds. They both argued that Maxi Okwu lacks the constitutional requirements to lead APGA.

It will be recalled that Okwu had in 2004, through an affidavit he deposited in court, accepted his expulsion as a member of APGA by the Umeh faction.
