APC Alleges Igwe Neni’s Apology Was Coerced

The party urged Ndi Anambra to ignore the apology and expect that the APC, as a party, would respect its traditional institutions and accord them utmost respect when the party comes to power in 2025.

This was made known by the Zonal Publicity Secretary, Anambra Central, Igboeli Arinze Napoleon.

Igboeli told journalists that the apology by Igwe Neni, Igwe Damian Onwuamaeze Ezeani, was gotten via threats, which would force Ndi Anambra to cringe if its details were eventually made known.

“We are now at a point where nothing is sacred in Anambra, not our traditional institutions nor our religious places of worship. All are now being assaulted by this administration which has shown no regard for Ndi Anambra.”

“The Soludo government, aside from failing to protect Ndi Anambra and improve upon the human indices and in the face of his growing unpopularity, has chosen to bully our traditional monarchs. The selective punishment of Igwe Ezeani for conferring a title on Senator Ifeanyi Ubah was decried by all but rather than budge and thread with caution, the government went ahead to issue all sorts of threats to Igwe Neni and its people resulting in the crude extraction of an apology.”

“Ndi Anambra, while we will not begrudge Igwe Neni for his peaceful approach to such wanton provocation, we urge you all to ignore the forced apology and endure this Pharaoh. We promise as true children of Anambra that come 2025, when the APC is elected in the forthcoming gubernatorial elections, we will restore pride to and treat our traditional institutions with the utmost respect.”
