Nwokedi Ugwoke, the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) ward 7, Igbo Eze North LGA, has been removed from office over alleged anti-party activities.
Nduka Obeta has already been sworn into office Ugwoke’s replacement.
Swearing in the new caretaker chairman, the Igbo-Eze Caretaker Committee chairman, Mr. Desmond Ayogu, accused Ugwoke of insubordination and gross disloyalty to the party.
He said the former chairman had been calling illegal local government chapter meetings, purporting himself to be the chairman of the party.
He also accused him of refusing to attend local government party meetings and participating in the activities of another political party.
In his remarks, the new chairman, Obeta promised to be loyal to constituted authorities and to uphold the party’s constitution in all his dealings.
He thanked the party in the ward for their confidence in him and assured the party members that he would not disappoint them.
