The All Progressives Congress (APC), Elele Leadership Caucus, in Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State, has threatened to recall the member representing Ikwerre/Emohua Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Chidi Wihioka, over alleged misrepresentation.
It has also said that Hon. Wihioka risked expulsion from the party in his constituency for anti-party activities.
The APC Elele Leadership Caucus’ resolution was contained in a statement signed by 20 prominent members of the party, after a crucial meeting in the Local Government Area.
The local council’s party leadership said Hon. Wihioka had since been removed as their caucus leader and advised him to stop speaking for them at all levels.
The party caucus reaffirmed their loyalty to President Muhammadu Buhari, Rotimi Amaechi and Chibuike Ikenga at all the levels of the party.
They called on party members to focus on uniting and building the party, rather than waste their energy on who would be the party’s flag-bearers in the 2019 election.
When contacted, Hon. Wihioka dismissed the group as ‘an illegal body and unknown to the constitution of the party.’
He added that by virtue of his position as the member representing Ikwerre/Emohua constituency in the House of Representatives, he was automatically the leader of the party in the area.
