The primary, held on Saturday, was marred by controversy as three different candidates were declared winners, sparking confusion and disputes within the party.
Governor Hope Uzodimma, serving as the Chairman of the Electoral Committee, initially announced Dennis Idahosa as the victor. However, Stanley Ugboaja, acting as a returning officer, declared Monday Okpebholo as the winner. Further complicating matters, Ojo Babatunde, claiming to represent returning officers from all local governments, proclaimed Anamero Dekeri as the rightful winner.
Emwanta’s decision to resign from the APC stemmed from concerns over the integrity of the primary process, which he outlined in a letter addressed to the Ward Chairman of Ward 7, Egor Local Government Area. In the letter, Emwanta cited the lack of internal democracy within the party and expressed a loss of confidence in its leadership structure and political ethos.
Asserting his right to freedom of association, Emwanta declared his intention to become an independent political player, enabling him to support candidates based on their qualifications, integrity, and alignment with his values and beliefs.
He concluded the letter by formally resigning from the APC and requested the removal of his name from the party’s register at the ward level, signaling his departure from the party as he moves forward with his political endeavors.
