Hilary Eke has emerged as Chairman of Imo State All Progressives Congress.
This is following the reported court injunction obtained by Imo Governor, Rochas Okorocha who had a court injunction stoping the state congress.
According to the spokesperson of the Imo APC stakeholders, Theodore Ekechi, briefly confirmed in Owerri, that the congress took place as scheduled.
Some of the contestants said to have emerged in the said congress were State chairman, Hilary Eke, Vice Chairman; Ugochukwu Nzekwe, Secretary; Patrick Eze.
They went ahead to say that the injunction was directed to the national leadership, and not a state congress committee, and that the injunction could not have stopped an action already concluded.
They were of the view that joining Hilary Eke, as one of the defendants in the said injunction was faulty.
Their reason, was that Eke, was not a member of the state congress committee, pointing out that they were amazed that the same Okorocha’s camp claimed that Eke had been suspended and wondered why a man said to have been suspended should be named in the injunction.
