CHIEF FRANK OVIE KOKORI REMAINS LEADER OF APC IN ETHIOPE EAST, PHIILIP EYAGOMARE IS UNKNOWN TO THE PARTY.

I am directed by the leadership of our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State to debunk the rumours making the rounds that our amiable elder Statesman and leader, Chief Frank Ovie Kokori has been removed as Leader of the APC in Ethiope East Local Government Area of Delta State.

The falsehood published in newsbeatportal.com is the handiwork of unscrupulous elements who cannot be identified as authentic member of our party and not known to the leadership of the APC in Delta State.

The said online publication mentioned one Mr. Philip Eyagomare as the new leader of APC in Ethiope East LGA, a development that is not only laughable but amounts to criminal impersonation and disgraceful political rascality.

Information reaching us tends to point fingers at certain members of the party who carted away N7,000,000 (Severn Million Naira) of our party monies during the 2015 general election. These gang of suspects will soon  face criminal prosecution.

It is this group of disgruntled elements that are joining local champion forces to cause unnecessary tension to divert attention from criminal prosecution. They will soon be arraigned in Court.

Members of the press and the public as well as APC supporters and party faithful should disregard the rumour and the said online publication.

Chief Frank Ovie Kokori is the only authentic leader of APC in Ethiope East and he is at the moment in Abuja for a very important national assignment for our great party.
