Confusion Trails Anambra Apc Primary As 3 Aspirants Withdraw From Race

Despite efforts to bring sanity into the governorship primary of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Awka, there is still confusion in the party as accreditation was still going on as at 7 pm.

Already, three aspirants have withdrawn from the exercise over what their supporters described as lack of transparency. Those that have withdrawn are Sir Paul Chukwuma, who also resigned his membership of APC, Professor Obiora Okonkwo and Chief Chukwuma Umeoji.

Those said to be still in the contest are Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu, Mr Valentine Ozigbo, Engr Johnbosco Onunkwo and Hon Edozie Madu. Incidentally, all the four are from Anambra South senatorial zone as the incumbent governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo.

Several APC members who claimed to be delegates have been kept in several hotels in Awka, even as the authentic list is still unclear.
