Former Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu, has taken a swipe at defectors from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying they are like individuals who eat food meant for the spirits. Ikpeazu made this statement during a meeting with the Abia PDP State Working Committee in Obingwa, where he emphasized the need for self-reflection and reconciliation within the party.

Dr. Kalu Describes Expulsion of Hon Ikenga Ugochinyere from PDP as a Hoax

Amos Oge Kalu, Column, News, Opinion, Politics, SponsoredEmeka Kalu, Opinion, Peoples Democratic Party, Politics

I read with dismay the fraudulently tailored publications signed by the Imo State PDP Publicity Secretary expelling Hon. Ikenga Ugochinyere.

A party captured by internal enemies should focus on retrieving its glory rather than fighting a man working to strengthen it. I call on the national leadership to intervene and reverse this decision. Hon. Ugochinyere…

Chief Barrister Olugu Kalu Ugba, a scion of Udumaeze Ohafia ancient kingdom, a great son of Amangwu Ohafia, erudite legal luminary, a former Deputy Chief of Staff, a mega businessman and politician is poised to prove that his 'Ishi bu mba' chieftaincy title is not a pet name. As his chieftaincy title rightly connotes, this man, 'Ishi bu mba' is…
