AWKA, Anambra – The purported Anambra Central Rally being organized by the embattled MD/ Chief Executive Officer of Awka Capital Territory Development Agency ACTDA Mr Ossy Onuko and one Prince Obinna Ndigwe under the umbrella of the All Progressives Grand Alliance APGA for the zone has been cancelled.
It was also gathered that Ossy Onuko may be suspended from the party if he goes ahead with the planed Mega Rally.
Recall that it is not up to one week when reports had it that the same Ossy Onuko ordered the manhandling of the driver attached to the GUO Transport Company which the state government and the All Progressives Grand Alliance APGA have been battling to manage the situation.
At the peak of the controversy he ventured into convening a political rally.
The Anambra state Chairman of APGA , Bar Ifeatu Obiokoye on Wednesday said the purported Anambra Central Mega Rally being planed by one Ossy Onuko and one Prince Obinna Ndigwe scheduled to hold on Saturday 28th October 2023 under the acronym Solution Team is cancelled.
According to him,the leadership and stakeholders of the party in Anambra Central Senatorial Zone were neither consulted nor taken into confidence before the so called Mega Rally was conceived or put into execution.
“We all knew that in the last one week,the party has been doing some damage control on the the same Ossy Onuko for ordering the beating of the GUO driver in Awka. The whole situation is the height of insensitivity”
“Suddenly he is planning a Mega Rally for the entire Anambra Central Senatorial Zone where you have the Deputy Governor , the Deputy Speaker, the State party Chairman and the Secretary to the State Government SSG”
“He did not even consult any of the leaders and these are the kind of things that they have been doing that has always cost us some of our electoral losses in Awka South local government area”
“As the state chairman of the party, I will not let that kind of profligacy to continue. I have stopped the rally and if he does anything on the contrary we shall take disciplinary actions and those behind him should come out and we shall suspend him and his cohorts from the party”he said.
Obiokoye also dismissed what he described as mere rumors about Ossy Onuko becoming a Deputy Governorship candidate,cnoting that those reports are not only laughable but infantile.
“There have been that kind of stories about being Deputy Governor but you know me and I cannot allow that rubbish as far as I am the chairman and that is not why I am on this saddle”
“We are more concerned about the Governor winning reelection and not about little boys, and for me , Anambra Central is a very important and sensitive area and we shall deliver at the appointed time” he said.
