A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State, Adam Eboh, has described as futile political gimmick, the outbursts of Senator Peter Nwaoboshi over the dissolution of the Forum of APC Delta North Local Government and Ward Chairmen.
Eboh made the remark while responding to the attack by Sen. Nwaoboshi on the APC Delta North Senatorial District Chairman, Ogbueshi Adizue Eluaka for dissolving the forum.
Sen Peter Nwaoboshi had criticized Eluaka for exercising powers that he did not have, and of running the Delta North APC as a personal fiefdom.
According to Eboh, the accusations are unfair and outrageous, asserting that Sen. Nwaoboshi misfired while desperately searching for relevance within the APC Delta North family.
Eboh noted that “the APC constitution does not recognize the bodies so proscribed, and that the party’s constitution recognizes the authority of the senatorial chairman to maintain order, discipline and cohesion within the party.
“It is this authority of the senatorial district chairman that gives him the power to discipline or dissolve any unconstitutional structure that promotes rancour, division or a display of demeaning conducts against the party’s constituted authorities or organs.
“The APC operates with due deference to higher organs and authorities within the party, Therefore it is embarrassing for unconstitutional structures like the Forum of APC Delta North Local Government Area Chairmen, to flagrantly disregard, undermine, and disparage a resolution of a higher authority of the senatorial district.

“This is an obvious aberration that should be promptly nipped in the bud as Ogbueshi Adizue Eluaka did in the exercise of his powers.”
Eboh advised Sen. Nwaoboshi to always choose his fights carefully and become a loyal party member who should encourage respect for constituted authorities as accorded him when he was a Senator.
He further reminded Sen. Nwaoboshi not to forget that the Ibori Vanguard was similarly dissolved when he (Nwaoboshi) was one of the leaders of the political group and no one, including him cried foul over the dissolution.
The APC chieftain concluded that ” it was unnecessary and ill-motivated to play hide and seek game with the leadership of the Delta North APC.”
