APGA chieftain invokes CKC spirit, Saints to mediate between Obi, Obiano

Awka – Chief Rommy Ezeonwuka, a chieftain
of All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), has
called for divine intervention in the feud
between Gov. Willie Obiano of Anambra and
predecessor, Peter Obi.
Ezeonwuka said in Awka on Monday that both
men were products of same school, Christ the
King’s College, Onitsha and also belonged to
the same Catholic faith.
“We want the spirit of Fr. Iwene Tansi and all
the saints as well as the spirit of Fr. Nicholas
Tagbo, their former principal at CKC, at whose
grave side both of them embraced recently to
help resolve the misunderstanding in the
interest of peace in the state.
“I think, it is only the intervention of Catholic
Saints and school’s alma-mater spirit that will
resolve this lingering enmity between the two
friends,’’ he said.
He said that Obi did well in the development
of the state during his tenure and Obiano was
equally doing well now.
Ezeonwuka, a member of APGA board of
trustee, said the state and the party would be
better for it with genuine settlement of the
differences.
He condemned the ongoing media attacks by
loyalists of the leaders and urged the two
leaders to call their men to order as the
situation was not in the interest of their
persons.
“We will surely have more quality dividends of
democracy for the people of the state with
two of them coming together to work”.
Ezeonwuka said that some people were
cashing in on the crisis to portray the duo in
bad light as well as the hard work they had
done toward the development of the state.
“They should not allow this crisis to continue
so as to put to shame their common seen and
unseen enemies,’’ he said.
