Why I Want All Governors Except Ikpeazu To Join APC — B.B Apugo
A BoT and national caucus member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Prince Benjamin Benedict Apugo, popularly known as BB Apugo has revealed he wanted all governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to defect to APC except the governor of Abia state, Okezie Ikpeazu.
He stated this during an interview with The Sun. “This party politics is when you make up your mind of what you want to be, the route to it is what you should follow.
“So, those people leaving PDP to APC, they know what they have in mind. Maybe, they have seen APC as the nearest route to achieve their objective”.
When asked about his thought on how feels about the defection Apugo responded; “What are you talking about? I’m very, very happy. We want all the PDP governors to join APC, apart from (Okezie) Ikpeazu”.
Speaking on why he did not want Ikpeazu in APC, Apugo claimed; “Because he (Ikpeazu) has not achieved anything. When you are going to talk to people, you will tell them what you have done. I am from Umuahia, the state capital, since I have not seen six inches block going up as a structure since he became governor, why shouldn’t I say apart from him? I don’t think there is any other state in Nigeria like Abia in terms of backwardness”.
Speaking on his ambition in the party, the APC chieftain said; “I have attained the highest position in Nigerian politics, including APC, for being a member of Board of Trustees and a member of national caucus.
“I will always support the Constitution of the party, I cannot go outside the Constitution of the party. Whatever direction the party gives or is going, that’s where I will be”.
