Delta APC Crisis: Ogboru, Omo-Agege’s group shun Kachikwu’s reconciliation meeting

Published

on

A peace meeting convened by the Minister for State, Petroleum, Dr Ibe Kachikwu, as part of processes to bridge the division in the Delta state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), was Tuesday night frustrated by the failure of the Senator Ovie Omo-Agege/Chief Great Ogboru faction to honour invitation to feuding factions.

The peace meeting, called by the Minister for selected leaders of the party, was schedule for 9pm at Kachikwu’s home in Abuja, according to our source, was to find a middle ground in the leadership crisis rocking the party in the state.

It would be recalled that Dr Kachikwu was quoted in the media to have said, after he paid a courtesy call on the National Chairmen of the party, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, that he is not vying for the governorship of Delta state, but that his preoccupation is to ensure that the party unites in the state, ahead of 2019 election.
