I am the APC Guber flag bearer in Imo- Uche Nwosu
Against reports that he has been substituted ahead next year’s guber election in Imo State, Uche Nwosu has insisted he remains the authentic governorship candidate of the All Progressives Party (APC) in the state.
He made the statement in reaction to reports making the rounds on social media that his name had been replaced with Sen. Hope Uzodinma by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party, ahead next year’s gubernatorial election in Imo State. A report he said was not true
Nwosu maintained that the news trending online was sponsored adding that it is intended to create tension in the state.
According to the online report, “The NWC of the party had substituted Nwosu’s name with that of Sen. Hope Uzodinma, as the APC governorship candidate for Imo State.
According to Nwosu, “Apart from available records, which showed that I am the authentic governorship candidate of our party, I also have a valid Court Order barring the party and INEC from substituting my name.
“So, the media house reporting that is obviously sponsored to do a hatchet job”.
He stated further that, “There are no contentions to my victory at the Imo State governorship primary election.
“What we have in the records is that the governorship candidate of APC in Imo State is Uche Nwosu, not only that I have a valid Court Order barring the party and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from receiving any other name that is not my name,” he said.
