An All Progressive Congress Party APC chieftain, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze has called out a top politician, Senator Magnus Abe over the lingering APC Rivers Crisis.
Chief Eze said Abe and his cohorts should be held responsible for the chain of crises that have rocked the APC in Rivers State in recent years.
Said Eze: “It is on record how Abe and his group have frustrated and ensured that all the efforts by the National Body of APC to organize a peaceful Congresses are frustrated. For reasons only known to him, he refused to go back to the Senate with hope of taking up the position of the Deputy Senate President which was zoned to the South-South just to ensure that the PDP continues to hold sway in the State. What type of party man will be so mean to his party if he is not a tool in the hands of those who feel threatened by the rising political profile of Chibuike Amaechi.
“Today, in the eyes of the public, APC in Rivers State is in the cooler just because a man vowed that unless the gubernatorial ticket is handed to him there will be no APC in the state and sadly, instead of sanctioning such character, he is motivated and encouraged with a Board appointment with the NNPC for being so wicked and inhumane. It is indeed unbelievable and unfortunate.
“He further stated that more shocking is the fact that some APC members who are well versed to these facts are on daily basis blaming the Minster and leader for their woes instead of holding responsible the man who has kept us all in this mess.
The party chieftain sympathizes with party members over the ravaging hunger occasioned by the Rivers APC crisis but reiterated that the fate of Oshiomhole awaits all those who contributed one way or the other to the present state of APC in Rivers State.

Eze recalled thus. “Amaechi saw all this coming our way and assembled both Senator Abe’s group and Dakuku’s group in the Rivers State Government House before the 2015 general elections and pleaded with all to work together to win the elections and that if not, it will be very difficult to sustain all members of the political family as his going to Abuja cannot sustain everybody. Instead of adhering to this wise counsel, Abe and his group resorted to play the spoilers script which eventually cost us the elections.”
Eze maintained that although Amaechi is doing his best to manage the Rivers APC crisis he is an individual and still needs the party’s prayers and support to secure the party from the hands of those who have vowed never to be alive to see the APC thrive.
Eze lamented that Abe has continued to unjustly attack both himself and Amaechi despite being a major beneficiary of Amaechi’s political goodwill.
“It is unthinkable that after informing the world that he is Chibuike Amaechi’s highest political investment, Sen. Abe will turn around to be so mean and wicked to a man without whom his political career would have ended at the Rivers State House of Assembly.”

In one of his various interviews, Sen. Abe inciting the youths against Chief Eze stated thus… “political mercenaries, and conflict entrepreneurs like Chief Eze, who has no ward or polling unit in Rivers State has continually misled the Minister of Transportation into the false belief that he was a Superman and every contrary voice in the party must be crushed”.
Describing the allegations as lacking in basis, satanic, unsubstantiated and emanating from the pit of hell, Chief Eze said Abe and his paid purveyors of falsehood singly intend to distort facts and divert attention from their commercial scheme of keeping the party in perpetual crisis in compliance with the terms of their agreement with Gov. Wike and the People’s Democratic Party.
Chief Eze said if exposing the wicked schemes to further aggravate the Rivers APC crisis and frustrate peace is his only sin, so be it.

He said Abe thereafter swore to tear the party apart and leave it in shambles in perpetuity. No wonder all reasonable efforts to restore peace to the party have been exercises in futility.
“I have in a well articulated petition to the National Reconciliation Committee set up by the party under the Chairmanship of His Excellency, Chief Bisi Akande, outlined all the sins Abe and his group have visited the chapter with. Apart from this, I have done series of articles and write-ups on how Abe denied the party victory during the 2015 general elections and improved on his well celebrated and historical evil plot to deny the party from contesting any political position during the 2019 general elections, all to ensure that Amaechi has no political platform to work upon”.
