Imo:Ihedioha’s former aide dumps PDP, may join Uzodinma in APC

Following the gale of defections that has hit the Imo state chapter of the People Democratic Party(PDP), the former Senior Special Assistant to the immediate past governor of the state, Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, on Public Enlightenment, Prince Eze Ugochukwu may have joined the list of decampees to the All Progressive Congress (APC). 

His exit from the party came less than a week after the State Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Imo state chapter, Hon. Damian Opara left the party for the All Progressive Congress (APC). 

Though Prince Ugochukwu had through a statement released by his media aide, Alvan Chinaka, announced his resignation from the PDP, he however did state his next political destination. 

He simply noted that after more than a decade of diligent and committed  service to the PDP that it was time to pull out and ‘heal’. 

The statement read in part: “I hereby announce my resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Imo State.

“My resignation is to allow myself heal after many years of active and selfless service to the PDP.” 

Prince Eze Ugochukwu who was popularly known as ‘warlord’ (Ochiwar), had for the greater part of a decade been the Director General of the PDP Senatorial Campaign in Imo West. 

It will be recalled that few days ago also, the State Youth Leader of the PDP, Comrade Aburi Williams Chibueze Ahanonu also resigned his membership of the party for the ruling APC. 

Also in the defection train is the State Assistant Financial Secretary, Hon M. I Okedu who also dumped the PDP for APC recently.
