Some members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Anambra State have warned the minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige to stop attacking members of the party.
Mr Obi Trice, Secretary Media and Publicity Committee of the Senator Andy Uba Governorship Campaign Organisation, accused the minister of using his media assistant, Ngige Nwachukwu to disparage members of the party in the state.
According to him: “The media aide to embattled former leader of the party, Senator Chris Ngige is warned to desist from spreading deliberate falsehood, but rather concentrate on the task of profering quality advice to the Honourable Minister.
“Speaking in almost one voice, the stakeholders observed that typical of the Minister, he has resorted to a deliberate avoidance of pertinent issues plaguing the growth of the party in the state; instead, enacting dramatic occurrences and scenes in order to digress from the issue of his widespread removal as leader of the party in the state.

“Last week, the APC in Anambra state scheduled a state caucus meeting at the office of Senator Andy Uba. But eager to flex muscles, Ngige also convened the same caucus meeting at his Asokoro, Abuja residence and at the same day and time as that of Senator Uba. It flopped. Stakeholders rather attended the meeting called by Uba, whereupon about 90 percent of constitutionally recognized state caucus members affirmed Uba as the Anambra State leader of the APC.
“The Ngige event was left desolate, requiring him to hire non-members to fill the vacant seats. Irked by the outcome of the event, Ngige has instructed his cousin and media assistant, Ngige Nwachukwu, to attack those he feels are his imaginary enemies,”
