In a communiqué issued at
the end of a meeting of the party’s stakeholders in Port Harcourt, on Thursday,
the group unanimously called on Abe to offer himself for the party’s
governorship primary.
The Rivers State Chapter of
the All Progressives Congress (APC), has endorsed Senator representing Rivers
South East, Magnus Ngei Abe for the state’s 2019 governorship poll.
The communiqué which was
signed by Chidi Wihioka, Felix Nwaeke, Augustine Wokocha, Maurice Pronen, Marcus Nle Ejii and Ipalibo Harry, reads:
“Without equivocation and
with the power and support of both the APC constitution and the Nigerian
Constitution, the meeting stated that
Abe’s qualification to aspire to the office of governor of Rivers State
on the platform of our party could not be questioned.
“Accordingly, the meeting
called on him to present himself for the 2019 gubernatorial on the platform of
APC, as he clearly has the support and approval of a majority of our party
fateful in the state.
“The meeting affirmed the
right of party members to have ambition, openly express it and canvass and
lobby and rally support for its actualisation without fear and within the laws
and constitution of the party.
“The meeting strongly urge
the state working committee to strive for independence, impartiality and
inclusiveness if the party must come out of the present low morale of members.”
