The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has urged the former Minister of state for Steel and Mines Development, Dr. Sampson Uchechukwu Ogah, to withdraw all Court cases he has filed against the incumbent Governorship Candidate of the party in Abia state, High Chief Ikechi Emenike and come over to him for discussion that will put the matter behind the party.
He stated this after handing over the flag of the party to Emenike at Umuahia Township stadium yesterday, during the flag off of his campaign in Abia.
He showcased Emenike as the authentic flag bearer of the party in the state, explaining his position over the governorship dispute, which he stated was clear to all that Chief Emenike, who has gotten the flag of the party, as the candidate should be given support to win the election come March .
According to him, “two persons are in court over our governorship flag, but whether they are in court or not,my position is that Chief Ikechi Emenike has gotten the governorship flag of our party and will be supported to win the election.
“Dr. Uche Ogah is my friend and a member of our party. Please tell him to stop and withdraw all Court actions he has taken and come and see me. Let’s discuss this matter in our living room. We are the politicians. We put the parties together to salvage Nigeria from hunger, destitution and ignorance. Why are you taking me to third parties who are politically neutral? Please, let’s talk this matter over’, Tinubu urged.
It could be recalled that Ogah had filed a suit challenging the declaration of Emenike as the governorship candidate of the party, even though he did not participate in the same primary that produced him.
Addressing residents on his mission to the state, he called on all to vote for him, the Governorship candidate and other candidates of the party during the 2023elections.
He said that he would make Nigeria good for the youths through transforming the educational sector to ensure that student receive good education and graduate at the right time.
“To the students I will make sure that you will not spend eight years in a course that should take you four years due industrial strike, he said and urged Youths to be courageous during the elections day and vote all APC Candidates. END
