They've been indications that Sen. Stella Oduah is not an APGA member and some people think it's just a smear campaign against her. No, it is not. It is a patriotic effort to stop PDP from sneaking in to destroy APGA.
It has been confirmed that APGA has only one senator in the Senate and it is not Stella Oduah but our own Victor Umeh.
In the records of the Senate, Sen. Oduah is a PDP senator. She is in the PDP Senate caucus and attends their meetings. Do u have any idea of the kind of issues that are discussed in such caucus meetings. They discuss and strategize on how to make PDP stronger in the country. It also means that they plan on how to win back States they lost to other parties and that include, how they will win back Anambra State.
This is why Stella Oduah has not and cannot declare for APGA in the Senate because she is not APGA but PDP. As PDP in Anambra is now firmly under the control of former governor Peter Obi, it is difficult for her to get their ticket because of last year's governorship primaries bust up. APGA is the only feasible channel back to the Senate and she erroneously believes that by wearing APGA gowns and giving out her Greek gifts, we would all be fooled at the same time.
If you are still in doubt of this high wired fraud to deny APGA of its greatest chance of having a true and authentic Anambra North senator in the Senate, please listen to the Senate Committee Chairman on Public Accounts, Sen. Mathew Urhoghide.
The senator in flaying APC's desperation to remove the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki said that, "if you want to remove the Senate President, there is a constitutional procedure. Sec 52(2) of the Constitution says that only 2/3 of the entire membership of the Senate after resolution can remove the Senate president."
Speaking further, the Distinguished Senator added, "--again sec 50 (a) of the same Constitution as amended says there shall be the president of the Senate which shall be elected by members of the Senate. It did not say by the party in power or the party that has the majority. There is nothing in the Constitution which talks about any political party producing Senate president".
Now listen to Sen. Urhoghide's bombshell. "---we can decide to elect Sen. Victor Umeh, the only APGA senator as our president".
This is from a senator who should know. Victor Umeh is the only APGA senator in the Senate. Stella Oduah will come down to Anambra and pretend to be APGA in order to con all of us and steal Anambra North ticket for her party, the PDP.
So many senators have openly and with dignity decamped to other parties. Saraki has openly decamped to PDP and former Senate minority leader, Akpabio has openly and proudly decamped to the APC. They were bold about it because they believe in their actions.
Stella Oduah has not decamped to APGA and will never because she does not believe in APGA and she is not proud of APGA. To her APGA represents a strategically strong party owned and managed by political nitwits, who can do anything for money.
But now is time to show her that APGA is not a party of ignoramuses. We are an upwardly mobile political party and we must find the courage to do what is right and refuse to be used as Saraki used APC.
