Following the recent meeting with the members of the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, currently serving in Abia by the state governor Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu where Igbere TV gathered that the governor allegedly gave out millions of naira to corps members in attendance, the Abia State chapter of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), has warned the Corps members to be careful of Ikpeazu’s deceptive tools because he (Ikpeazu) will use and dump them.
Ikpeazu With NYSC Members In Abia state
This was made known in a statement signed by the state chairman, Reverend Augustine Ehiemere, and obtained by Igbere TV on Sunday.
APGA further lashed out on Ikpeazu for being a failure in tackling the challenges rampaging the entire state.
The statement reads in full,
“The attention of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Abia State chapter has been drawn to a suspicious meeting held recently between the Governor of Abia State Okezie Ikpeazu and some ‘Youth Corpers’ posted to the state, during which the governor made a cash donation running into millions.
“From the soothing words of the governor to the Corpers during the meeting, we have no doubt that the governor is desperate and desirous of some kind of emergency alliance with these Corpers who are obviously going to play some roles during the 2019 elections in Abia state.
“APGA views this sudden kind and generous disposition of the governor with suspicion, because the governor is not known to have made any giant stride in the education sector, neither has he ever initiated any notable policy that has impacted positively on the welfare of students, rather, his conspicuous failure in this sector has had adverse negative effect on students who have been the greatest victims of infrastructural decay and repeated strike action embarked upon by teachers in our institutions; the governor is certainly not a recognized friend of students, and should not start being one overnight through the wrong way.
“To our innocent Corpers, while we continue to wish you well and pray that you have a hitch-free service in Abia, we urge you to dread these foes that have put on the apparel of friendship with the intent of hoodwinking and using you to advance a self-serving course that would only expose you to danger.
“Do not allow yourselves to be deceived and used by these desperadoes who would not hesitate to abandon you when plunged into trouble.”
