We accepted him, sheltered him and convinced our supporters to support him. Unfortunately, he has now chosen the path of ignominy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are glad to inform the public that Elebe left to the APC alone and our joy and strength as a party to beat therefore is that majority of his supporters, our party\u2019s members, sympathizers and loyalists including even members of his family still stand firmly in support of APGA\u201d the stressed.<\/p>\n<p>The party, however, called on its terming supporters in Ebonyi to remain resolute and committed and increase efforts to ensure that their gubernatorial candidate, Prof Benard Odoh wins in the forthcoming general election in the state.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
