2019 elections: Serving ministers, party leaders made APC to lose South East – Orji Kalu
Kalu made the call on Saturday in Enugu during the zonal stakeholders’ meeting of the party, NAN reports.
“One of the leaders of the party outside this zone told me that some of our chieftains including serving ministers negotiated with PDP governors to allow our party 25 per cent of vote cast at the polls. Kalu said that such circumstance affected the performance of the party in the zone in the last election.
“The forces were against us in Abia State but we won seats in the National and State Assemblies. If some people negotiated for 25 per cent on behalf of the party, we have to fight back,” Adighije said. The minister commended the leadership of the party in the zone for convening the meeting, adding, “if we can come together, we can surprise Nigerians as they believe we cannot work together.“I see a very bright future for Ndigbo if we can unite,” Onu said.
