APGA suffering from internal bleeding, says PDP
The Peoples Democratic Party has called
on the All Progressives Grand Alliance to look inwards to solve the
crisis in the Anambra State House of Assembly and stop blaming
outsiders.
The Publicity Secretary of the PDP in
Anambra State, Mr Nnamdi Nwangwu, made the call while speaking with
newsmen on Wednesday in Awka, the Anambra State capital
APGA had accused the PDP of masterminding the crisis in the state Assembly.
The Anambra State House of Assembly
dominated by APGA on November 13 allegedly impeached the Speaker of the
House, Rita Maduagwu, and replaced her with Ikem Uzoezie. The
development led to the sealing of the Assembly complex by the police.
APGA had alleged that the crisis was created to orchestrate the
impeachment of the state governor, Willie Obiano, by making the state
ungovernable.
Obiano’s growing closeness with the All
Progressives Congress-led Federal Government had heightened apprehension
in some quarters that he might work against the interest of the PDP in
the state in next year’s elections. His predecessor, Peter Obi, is a
running mate to Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
But Nwangwu on Wednesday described
APGA’s allegation as ridiculous and unfounded, adding that the party was
suffering from internal bleeding, resulting from its “skewed
primaries.”
