Some yet-to-be identified thugs on Friday invaded the Abia State Secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC), carting away valuables including cash, electronics and other items. The state chairman of the party, Hon. Donatus Nwamkpa, who addressed newsmen accused Chief Ikechi Emenike and Dr. Emmanuel Ndukwe, of being responsible for the attack.
He claimed that Emenike was sponsoring attack on the party because he was on suspension. He explained that Emenike's ward had suspended him and stressed that he remained suspended.
He described the attack as shocking and commended the Abia commissioner of police for responding promptly to the distress call put to him.
“This briefing is arising as a result of the ugly incident of today where one High Chief Ikechi Emenike accompanied by Dr. Emmanuel Ndukwe, and Engr. Okpechi led a group of hoodlums to the party’s secretariats while the leaders of the party were meeting at Wonderland event centre, Aba road, Umuahia.
“This invaders led by one Ikechi Emenike broke into the party office and carted away the valuables of the party, cash and photography of the party leadership.
“As we speak to you now, we cannot see anything, only the picture of the President is here, the picture of the National Chairman and the state chairman has been removed. The secretariat was actually invaded. We are yet to assess the amount of money so far taken out of our purse”.
“As I speak to you, it came to the leadership of APC in the state as a shock. And we needed the intervention of the police to drive away the hoodlums from the secretariats. We called the commissioner of police, we thank him for responding promptly and this has saved Abia from bloodshed.
“Let us say it clear that the so called Ikechi Emenike has no input in this Secretariat, and cannot reap what he did not sow. Chief Ikechi Emenike was duly suspended by his ward and remain suspended in the party”.
