The Governor of Abia State, Dr. Alex Otti duly resigned his membership of the All Progressives Congress, APC, before joining the Labour Party, LP.
The Special Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the Governor, Ferdinand Ekeoma, who made the disclosure in a release on Saturday, also said the resignation letter of the Governor was duly received and acknowledged by the then Ward Chairman of Otti.
The press release titled, “IGNORE THE REJECTED ABIA PDP AND APC: GOVERNOR ALEX OTTI DULY RESIGNED FROM THE APC”, reads in part:
“The individual being paraded by the defeated APC Governorship candidate Chief Ikechi Emenike as the APC Chairman of Ward 5 Isialangwa South LGA is an impostor hired to do a failed dirty job, so he and his paymasters should be ignored.
“The very unpopular and roundly defeated APC and PDP candidates have realised how terribly bad their cases in court are, having failed woefully to prove that they even stood a chance of winning the Governorship election, have now resorted to disinformation and mischief while hoping to actualize the impossible mission of stealing the people’s mandate through the back door.
“Finally, Governor Otti wishes to reassure Abians, that the mandate unanimously given to him is safe and secure and can never be stolen by those who merchandise politics for personal gains, and that he would continue to serve the people with passion and sincerity.”
