South-East APM chairmen reject Makinde campaign coordinators

The chairmen of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) in the South-East have objected to the appointment of zonal and state coordinators for the Seyi Makinde/Daura Presidential Campaign Council, claiming it undermines the party's recognized state executives. The objection was made in a communiqué read by Ken Ikeh, the Enugu State Chairman, during a press conference in Abuja.

The communiqué, signed by state chairmen from Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo, emphasized the need for proper consultation before appointment of coordinators. The chairmen described the arrangement as inconsistent with the party's principles, particularly lacking adequate consultation with state chairmen, and could create confusion and weaken unity.

They appealed to the party's presidential flagbearer and APM national leadership to dissolve the state coordinatorship structures and urged the National Leader, Senator Bala Mohammed, and Makinde to intervene urgently.
