As the crisis rocking the All Progressives Congress in Imo State rocks on, ex-governor, Senator Rochas Okorocha has insisted on a fresh registration exercise that will be supervised by the Daniel Nwafor led executive committee.
This is coming after the fresh two weeks window granted for registration and revalidation of members by the National Caretaker Committee.
He made this demand after a meeting with some members of the APC Caretaker Extra-Ordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) at the party Secretariat in Abuja on Tuesday evening.
Okorocha informed newsmen that there was no membership registration in the State as the Daniel Nwafor led executive were allegedly not allowed to carry out the exercise, insisting that “any registration that doesn’t take Daniel Nwafor as the Chairman of the party is illegal.”

The lawmaker complained that things were not going right with the party in the state and cautioned that the party should follow the path of rule of law.
“We are here because of what is happening in Imo state. Primarily, things are not going right in the state as it affects the party. We are concern about the upcoming congresses. Certain things need to be put in place before Congress as it affects registration and others.
“There has been an issue about the elected executive of the party in the state. The elected executive members have not been allowed to function. We are here to bring the party’s attention to it. And we know that our party is a law-abiding party.
A party of rule of law. We have come to ask the party to obey the court judgment that established the right executive in the state which has not been upturn by any court. That court judgment said Daniel Nwafor executive is the authentic and elected member of the executive.

“The judge ruled that not even the NEC of the APC can dissolve it. And the judgment has been there up to the Court of Appeal. And there has not been any other court judgment. High, appeal court judges have shown that the authentic exco is led by him (Nwafor).
And without him, the Congresses will be illegal. We have come to remind the party as a law-abiding party to please obey the court judgment. And ensure that the court judgment on the party stands.”
