**APC in Anambra: PDP Takes Over, Members Protest** The recent State Congress of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State has been marred by controversy, with foundation members of the party protesting what they describe as a takeover by members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). The protest is centered around the absence of key party stalwarts, including former governor and Minister, Sen. Chris Ngige, and former National Auditor, Chief George Moghalu, during the Congress. According to eyewitnesses, the party's Secretariat was hijacked by PDP members, who allegedly disqualified and denied access to purchase forms for original APC members. This has left many questioning the legitimacy of the new leadership. "It's like a PDP party, not the APC we know," said a frustrated party member. The absence of key leaders such as Sen. Ngige and Chief Moghalu has sparked concerns about the party's future in the state. "At what point did these newcomers join the APC?" asked a protesting member. "We need a clear demarcation between the Renewed Hope Ambassadors campaign organisation of Mr President and the leadership of the APC in Anambra state." The outgoing Chairman of the party, Chief Basil Ejidike, has been replaced, but not without controversy. Sen. Uche Ekwunife, who was instrumental in the Congress, defended the party's actions, saying that it was in line with the APC constitution. "We're looking for people with capacity to work and deliver, not just rubber stamps," she explained. The protest is a wake-up call for the APC in Anambra State, highlighting the need for internal democracy and transparency in party affairs. As the party navigates this crisis, one thing is clear: the future of the APC in Anambra hangs in the balance. Will the party be able to bounce back from this setback, or will the PDP continue to hold sway? Only time will tell.
