APGA to recall Anambra Assembly members for defecting to APC

The Anambra State Chapter of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), has warned the six lawmakers in the State House of Assembly, who recently defected to the All Progressive Congress, (APC), to vacate their seats and hand over all the party’s belongings under their possession to the hierarchy of the party in the state.

The State Secretary of APGA and one time Executive Chairman, Ayamelum Local Government Area of the state, Anthony Ifeanyi, disclosed this to journalists in Awka, on Tuesday.

Ifeanyi, who said that the party would soon start the process of recalling the affected lawmakers if they refused to vacate their seats, maintained that since they had moved to APC they should vacate their seats in the State House of Assembly, arguing that it was the position of the law.

He noted that they should have vacated their seats because they went to the House of Assembly as honourable under the platform of APGA, saying that as far as he was concerned, Anambra is an APGA State

He added that APGA was not missing the lawmakers and asked them to go in peace wherever they wanted to go, but must return everything that belonged to APGA, including their seats.

Ifeanyi disclosed that he was not surprised about the actions of the decamped six lawmakers.

According to him, the leadership of APGA in the state had been monitoring and observing them and found out that they were really determined to distort the leadership of APGA just because of the interest of one man and thanked God that the defectors finally came out with their true colours.
