Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State and six other big wigs of the All Progressives Congress in the state have been invited to appear before a disciplinary committee set up by the state chapter of the party in Owerri, the state capital.
The seven men are to appear before the committee on Wednesday.
Others invited included: APC candidate for Imo East senatorial district, Emma Ojinere; House of Representatives candidate for Ezinihitte Mbaise/Ahiazu Mbaise Federal Constituency, Rapheal Igbokwe; Ehime Mbano/IhitteUboma/Obowo Federal Constituency candidate, Chike Okafor; state Deputy Speaker, Ugonna Ozuruigbo; Eddy Iheanacho and a gubernatorial aspirant, Obinna Mbata.
In the invitation letter signed by the Committee Chairman, Matthew Omegara; and Secretary, Kevin Ugwu on Tuesday, in Owerri, the committee stated that the affected persons were invited for various anti-party activities.
According to the letter, the committee will take decisions on what it described as “the ugly activities” after investigations.
The committee will meet at the APC Secretariat/Campaign office, Owerri, between January 16 and 17, 2019 and 9am and 6pm respectively.
The invitation letter reads in part, “The above-named are directed to appear before a disciplinary committee of the All Progressives Congress, Imo State, to answer to complaints made against them respectively on “anti-party activities, conduct likely to have adverse effects on the party and bring the party into hatred, contempt, ridicule or disrepute and factionalisation of party membership.”
