Leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State have condemned President Bola Tinubu’s appointment of Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu as a minister-designate, calling it an anti-party action.

They questioned the rationale behind the president’s decision to appoint her without consulting party members.

The APC leaders in the state made this known during an emergency meeting of stakeholders in Awka on Thursday.

They questioned the rationale behind the president’s decision to appoint Ojukwu without consulting party members, describing it as a gross violation of party loyalty that undermines the morale of their members.

High Chief Bunty Onuigbo, the South East Zonal Secretary of APC and a member of the APC Elders Forum in Anambra, who spoke on behalf of the stakeholders, stated that the president’s actions do not foster loyalty within the party.

His words: “This is nothing but an act of anti-party, and it is detrimental. By empowering members of other political parties at the expense of the APC in Anambra State, Mr President is not supporting party loyalty.

“Does Mr President want a mass defection of APC members in Anambra to the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA)? Is he indirectly working for APGA in Anambra State?”

He expressed that the situation is both “unheard of and highly demoralising,” lamenting that the leadership in Abuja seems to be enhancing the fortunes of rival parties at the expense of the APC.

“This is a group that despises the APC and wants nothing to do with us. Mr President is encouraging them by making such appointments,” he added.

Onuigbo announced that APC stakeholders have decided to formally present their grievances regarding the appointments to the state Chairman, Chief Basil Ejidike, for submission to the National Working Committee and the National Executive Committee.
