Chief Edozie Njoku, National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, has urged Anambra State Governor Charles Soludo to allow peace to prevail in the party.
Njoku filed the appeal after the Abuja High Court dismissed forgery claims leveled against him by the Nigeria Police Force, NPF, on Tuesday.
Remember that the NPF prosecuted Njoku and the political party’s Youth leader, Chukwuemeka Nwoga, in court on November 22, 2022, for allegedly plotting with others at large to overturn a Supreme Court verdict delivered by Justice Mary Peter Odili (rtd).
Njoku claimed that instead of rebuilding the party that gave him the platform to become governor of Anambra State, Soludo has squandered state monies battling him and dragging the party to its knees.
He encouraged the governor to join the All Progressives Congress, APC, if he so desired, while allowing the APGA’s core members to remain in the party in peace.
Njoku told reporters in Abuja, “Political litigation is something we’ll continue to go through [in Nigeria].”
“Everybody knows my case. It is not going to be perfect. It was from this court that I went and spent two days in the prison but since that day I keep saying that justice will come at last, especially when billionaires are involved.
“There’s a governor of the state who is using the state resources to unleash a war against me for what reason I don’t know. Maybe he thinks I’m not going to be a rubber-stamp who he will be controlling but he might be joking.
“He might not be serious. All I’m asking Charles Soludo to do is let us have peace in AGPA. If he wants to join APC that’s not a problem but he should allow those who believe in AGPA to settle down. I’m calling on Charles Soludo, let’s end it now.”
