The crisis between two factions of the All Progressives Congress, APC in Abia state has taken a new turn as Thugs attacked the secretariat last week leaving some party members with Injuries.
It was gathered that the crisis in the Abia state chapter of the party is between Orji Uzor Kalu and one chief Ikechi Emenike.
The attack, which led to at least two persons being seriously injured and currently fighting for their lives at a medical facility in Umuahia, occurred around the ever busy Azikiwe road, Umuahia where the state headquarters of APC is located.
Eyewitnesses reports indicate that trouble started after the group led by Kalu were holding their meeting at an event centre in Isi Court Umuahia when they received reports that the Emenike led faction has broken into the party’s secretariat to hold their own meeting.
On receiving the information, thugs and cultists were mobilized to move to the secretariat and attack Emenike’s group with the intention of forcibly taking over the party’s secretariat.
On arrival at the secretariat, they met stiff resistance from the Emenike group who fought back. Watch the video
