Alleged N1.3b fraud protest: Enugu PDP denies APC’s sponsorship claim ⬇️
The Peoples Democratic Party , in Enugu State, has denied the claim that the party sponsored the protest by aggrieved members of All Progressives Congress over alleged involvement of Chairman of the party, Ugochukwu Agballah, and the governorship candidate, Uche Nnaji, in N1.3b fraud scandal in the state.
Agballah had, while reacting to the protest, accused the PDP of sponsoring the protest to undermine the progress the party has made in the state. Ogbodo said: “We have, as usual, been dragged into a purely APC affair by Ugochukwu Agballah, who has claimed that protesters were sponsored by the PDP. Of course, Agballah’s penchant for looking for scapegoats rather than face his demons is legendary.
“Besides, the APC has never been a factor in elections in the state, let alone now that key stakeholders of the APC, in Enugu, have abandoned the party to Agballah and his godfathers.Ogbodo stressed that the fight in APC had nothing to do with PDP.
