The Dr Tony Nwoye Media Office has dispelled the story that the Senator representing Anambra Central Senatorial District, Chief Victor Umeh, is having an issue with Senator Tony Nwoye.
Describing the story as rumour being propagated by a few misguided members of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) to create disaffiliation amongst the leaders of the Labour Party (LP), the Nwoye Media Office said Umeh had been one of greatest supporters of Senator Nwoye in the Senate.
The group’s statement read in part, “Our attention has been drawn on the above baseless and irresponsible subject Matter and we have received a lot of calls from well-meaning Anambraians on a post being circulated on social media against Our Leader and Senator, Senator Victor Umeh by Online Urchins.
“Senator Victor Umeh OFR has been one of greatest supporters of Our Principal in the Senate. He has always supported, seconded and co-sponsor most of his Bills and Motions in the Senate.
“This news is propagated by few misguided APGA members who are obviously afraid and fighting to create a Divison and revolt within the Labour Party ranks.
“First, they took on Mr. Peter Obi, and now Sen.Victor Umeh, to what end, if we may ask?
“We wonder how a party will degenerate so much with nothing to offer to Ndi Anambra except falsehood.
“APGA, as a party at this time, should channel all their efforts into working for Anambrians who voted for them in the last polls.
“In 2025, Anambra will go to the polls and decide if the present APGA led state Government has delivered dividends of democracy to its citizens.
“We also want to state that the Labour Party Senate Caucus is intact and working together under the exemplary leadership of Senator Victor Umeh OFR and Senator Ezenwa Onyewuchi.
“Our profound appreciation to all LP Senators namely Senator Victor Umeh,Senator Ezenwa Onyewuchi,Sen Ireti Kingibe,Sen Kelvin Chukwu, Sen Okey Ezea,Sen Neda Imasuen, 34 PDP Senators led by Sen Aliero and Sen Aminu Tambuwal, Sen Kawo Ismaila of NNPP as well as Labour Party Leader,Mr Peter Obi and the entire NWC of LP for their unalloyed support.”
