APGA Disowns Alex Ikwechegh’s Conduct, Plans Disciplinary Action
The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has publicly condemned the actions of Alex Ikwechegh, a member of the House of Representatives representing the Aba North and South Federal Constituency, following his alleged assault on an e-hailing driver.
This incident, which became widely known after a video went viral, shows Ikwechegh reportedly attacking a Bolt driver who was delivering an item to his home.
In a statement released on Monday, Mazi Ejimofor Opara, APGA’s National Publicity Secretary, expressed the party’s strong disapproval of Ikwechegh’s behavior. He described the actions as “condemnable in all ramifications” and emphasized that they do not reflect the party’s values or constitution.
The statement noted, “The attention of our great party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance, has been drawn to a viral video of alleged assault meted out to a citizen by the Honourable member representing Aba North and South Federal Constituency, Alex Ikwechegh.” Opara highlighted that APGA is built on the foundation of respecting human rights, firmly condemning the actions of Ikwechegh.
Opara further stated, “As a party, we are founded on the basic principles of upholding the dignity of all humans, irrespective of class, creed, and/or ethnicity. The recent video allegedly showing Ikwechegh assaulting a cab driver is totally unacceptable and runs counter to what our Party – APGA – represents.”
In line with APGA’s constitution, the leadership of the party plans to establish a disciplinary committee to investigate the incident. If Ikwechegh is found guilty, appropriate sanctions will be imposed according to APGA’s rules.
Opara emphasized that all APGA members and elected officials are expected to maintain high standards of decorum, civility, and integrity in both public and private settings. He concluded, “Our party shall not tolerate any verifiable conduct that is not in tandem with the ideals of our founding fathers. In APGA, we are our Brother’s and Sister’s keeper and it cannot be any other way.”
