The Chief Press Secretary to Abia State Governor, Ukoha Njoku Ukoha has alleged that the Chairman of the All Progressive Congress, APC, in Abia State, Kingsley Ononogbu is attempting to mislead President Bola Tinubu by lying against Governor Alex Otti.
Ukoha was reacting to the statement made by Ononogbu on Sunday where he said Governor Alex Otti was running a “One Man Show” leadership in Abia.
Ononogbu, while delivering his address during the inauguration of Renewed Hope Partners by the Deputy Speaker House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu in Bende, faulted Governor Otti for ruling Abia State from his own private residence instead of Umuahia the State capital and for allegedly using social media propaganda to promote his achievements.
But reacting to the APC Chairman’s remarks, Chief Press Secretary to Governor Otti, Njoku Ukoha Njoku described the statement as an attempt by the APC Chairman to deceive and mislead President Bola Tinubu about APC’s strength
He urged the APC Chairman to focus on getting votes for his party and the President rather than focusing on Governor Otti, even as he reminded him about the 4% votes which his party was only able to deliver to Mr President during the 2023 election.
Ukoha said that the issue of where the Governor resides had been addressed by the State government and should not have been used as an attack point against the Governor.
“Ononogbu should desist from deceiving and misleading Mr. President and focus more on how to get votes for President Tinubu in 2027 and stop lying against Governor Otti who Abians are celebrating in every nukes and crannies of the State,” he said.
According to Ukoha, the APC Chairman is attracting a negative image for the APC through his actions.
