The Labour Party (LP) candidate for the Abakaliki/Izzi Federal Constituency in the 2023 general elections, Dr. Ezeh Emmanuel Ezeh has blamed Nigeria’s socio-economic woes since 2015 on the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ezeh, in a press statement made available to journalists, on Tuesday in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi State capital, described APC leaders as incompetent people without character who can only build evil and nothing more in the country.
He was reacting to the recent award bestowed on the Works Minister, David Umahi by Silverbird Television as the best performing minister in President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet.
Ezeh congratulated Umahi for his outstanding performance, which earned him the award, saying the minister’s political value can’t go unnoticed ahead of the 2027 polls both in Ebonyi State and the country at large.
The LP chieftain expressed surprise that the few performing political appointees in the Tinubu administration came from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), maintaining that the ruling APC has destroyed the good legacies built by the PDP.
“Let me congratulate Dave Umahi on this award as the best-performing minister in Tinubu’s cabinet.

“Surprisingly, but worthy of note, the few performers in this administration all came from the PDP. APC is a party of incompetent people without character, with the capacity to build evil and nothing more. This the reason they destroyed everything handed to them in 2015. Nigeria died in 2015 – Simple!
“Today in Ebonyi politics, Umahi holds all the four aces. Don’t mind sycophants milking the governor to deceive you. He is strategic albeit in the negative.
“He saw the impotence of the older politicians and ran them out. He saw through their greed and hunger and their lack of character and took full advantage.
“In 2027, Umahi will still be a force to reckon with unless the current governor makes a sharp U-turn,”Ezeh said.
He advised Governor Francis Nwifuru of Ebonyi State, to focus on result-oriented governance, stressing that good governance is driven by data.
