0

Supporters of Imo state Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha and those of Senator Osita Izunaso almost engaged themselves in a free for all fight in the early hours of Sunday at the National convention of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Even though the situation was brought under control, there are indications that the result for the office of the National Organising Secretary may not be announced.

Chairman of the convention committee and Jigawa State Governor, Abubakar Badaru announced that both parties have agreed not to hold the election in view of the high tension it has generated.

While Izunaso who is seeking re-election to the office of National Organising Secretary has the backing of some leaders of the party from the south east, Governor Okorocha is backing another candidate for the position in what many sees as his last fight to redeem his political image.
