A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Chief, Eze Chukwemeka Eze has criticized the appointment of Hon. Tony Okocha as Coordinator of the Bola Ahmed Tinubu Solidarity-Vanguard in Rivers State.
Okocha, a former member of the APC in Rivers State was appointed leader of the group in the state, few months ago.
Eze in a statement Today, described Okocha as a non-APC member unfit to coordinate Tinubu’s activities in the state.
He called on the National leadership of the group to reverse the appointment and revert to the state party leadership for recommendations.
Part of his statement reads,
Appointing a non-member of the party to hold sensitive positions and lead party faithful smacks of manifest recklessness and gross insensitivity laced with deliberate ill-will on the part of some individuals who are hellbent on usurping the party’s leadership in Rivers State in the pursuit of their selfish private vendetta.
Recognizing a critic and archenemy of the party to coordinate an APC affairs in the State is not only an insult but a joke taken too far and therefore unacceptable.
Apart from all his inimical activities against the party including not participating in the parts revalidation excerise, he never see any good thing in Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi who is the Leader of the party in the region so appointing such a character to coordinate one of the major activities of the party is not only an insult but to add salt to our injury.
In this regard if the leadership of Bola Ahmed Tinubu Solidarity Vanguard BATS-Vanguard, is truly serious about seeking the help of the party and her members in Rivers State, Eze said it must revert to the party leadership to approve a genuine and creditable member of the party to carry out such crucial and important function.
