The reported removal of Chief Victor Giadom and Chief Ita Udosen from their positions as Chairman and Secretary of the All Progressives Congress South South Zonal Executive Committee has been disowned.
APC described the removal of the leaders as unlawful and unconstitutional.
The APC, in a statement by the National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, said the action, which was taken by individuals who have no legal authority should be disregarded.
He said Giadom and Udosen remain the South-South Zonal Vice Chairman and Secretary of the party.
The party in the statement warned the persons behind the statement issued in the name of South-South Zonal Executive Committee to be ready to face disciplinary actions.
Meanwhile, the leadership of the South South Zone of the APC has denied that the Zonal Executives met to suspend any of its Exco.
The South South Zonal APC noted it was a well-choreographed misinformation on social media and surprisingly mainstream media.
According to a statement by the South South Zonal Publicity Secretary, Dave Okumgba, “The constitution of the APC 2022 as amended is an instrument powerful enough to deal with all internal party matters.”
