Rivers APC Denies Reports Of Amaechi’s Resignation, Welcomes Abe’s Exit

The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC has denied viral reports (Not GWG) of the resignation of party leader, Rotimi Amaechi from the party but has, however, welcomed the resignation of factional leader, Magnus Abe from the party.

The party in a statement made available to GreenWhiteGreen GWG said the exit of Abe would be a healing for the party alleging that the former senator has for the past years been a cancer in the party.

The party in the statement issued by State Publicity Secretary, Senibo Chris Finebone alleged that reports on Tuesday of the resignation of Rotimi Amaechi from the party were the handiwork of enemies of the party.

Denying the claim of Amaechi’s resignation in the statement that was mainly devoted to addressing the reported exit of Senator Abe from the party, Finebone said:

“Let me use this opportunity to raise the alarm that just yesterday, evil people launched fake news concerning our leader, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi purporting that he has resigned from the APC.

“This is a lie taken from the very abyss of hell. Kindly ignore it and any such fake news that may be concocted and circulated in the media particularly the social media to smear the former Minister of Transportation. He remains a loyal member of the APC and he has re-iterated this at every opportunity and that he would work to ensure the Party resoundingly wins the 2023 elections.”

Rivers APC Jubilant Over Abe’s Resignation

Responding to the exit of Abe, the party spokesman said:

“It recently came to our attention that Senator Abe and the few persons still with him had concluded plans to join the Social Democratic Party (SDP) on whose platform Abe will run for governor, hence their persistent hype to the effect that Abe will be on the ballot come 2023.

“In what appears to be a carefully planned exit plan, close associates of Abe started resigning from the APC and making heavy weather of their exit in the social media as part of their exit plan as though they have been functional members of the Party, just to hoodwink the public.

“This press conference is essentially to explain to you and the public that Rivers APC considers the formal exit of Abe and his associates from the APC as good riddance. We liken it to a successful excision of a debilitating cancer from the body. Rivers APC can now heave a sigh of relief from the sustained destabilizing onslaught by Senator Abe. We wish him well as he joins the SDP. We pray that he takes everything he exhibited in APC particularly his nuisance value to his new party so that the world would see him for who he truly is.

“We make bold to state without an iota of doubt that Senator Abe and his supporters had, by their actions and utterances, long ceased to be functional members of APC. They shunned and refused to participate in the Membership Revalidation exercise that was carried out nationwide by the Party. They also abstained from other legitimate activities of the Party, making their recent purported resignation a mere formality and part of their face-saving exit strategy aimed at deceiving the public.”

“We appreciate your understanding that there is no blanket exit or exodus of well-meaning members of Rivers APC. We believe that you and the public would appreciate that our Party is, by far, better off without Abe and his motley supporters.”
