The All Progressives Congress, APC, has dissolved the Enugu State working Committee of the party.
This is preparatory to the detection of Governor Peter Mbah to the broom party.
Our correspondent reports that the dissolution came barely 2 days after the Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Uche Nnaji resigned over alleged certificate forgery.
Nnaji is an ally of Barr Ugo Agballah, the now ex-chairman of APC in Enugu State.
Agballah and Nnaji had seriously opposed Mbah's defection to the party.
However, Nwoye and other foundation members of the party insisted that the governor is gladly welcome to the party.
Rising from its 179th meeting in Abuja on Thursday, the APC National Working Committee, NWC, dissolved the Agballah-led SWC with immediate effect.
In its place, former chairman of the party in the state, Barr Ben Nwoye is now the new helmsman of the party in the state.
A former Speaker of the Enugu State House of Assembly, Barr Eugene Odo is the Secretary of the 7-man caretaker committee.
Resolution taken during the meeting was signed by Hon. Durosinmi Meseko, Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the APC.
It reads in parts:
The National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) held its 179th meeting at the Party's National Secretariat, Abuja, on Thursday, 9th October, 2025, presided over by the National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda.
