The All Progressives Congress, APC in Ebonyi State, has debunked claims that Governor Francis Nwifuru agreed to serve only one of four-year term.
The party stated that no such agreement, written or verbal, existed for the governor to step down in 2027 after a single term.
In a statement, the party’s Publicity Secretary, Ogbuatu Simbad, described the claim as false and misleading.
He said, “There was never any agreement to stop a man fulfilling destiny. Let it be clear – Governor Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru is not leaving after four years. Any claim to the contrary is entirely false,” Ogbuatu said.
He noted that since the creation of Ebonyi State, no governor has served only one term, and history supports continuity.
“A few individuals, once on the sidelines, are now trying to distract and confuse the people. But their imagination only reveals the content of their own minds. Ebonyians know better,” he added.
Ogbuatu lauded Governor Nwifuru’s administration for placing the state on the path to greatness through sustained economic and infrastructural development
He stressed that the strength of the APC in Ebonyi is built on unity, peace, humility, and good governance – not intimidation or force – and that the government remains committed to delivering its promises.
The party also commended Governor Nwifuru’s visionary leadership and expressed full support for his reelection bid.
Ogbuatu further revealed that the APC, under the leadership of Stanley Okoro-Emegha, has met with aggrieved members across the 13 local councils and 171 wards, assuring them of reconciliation, peace, and inclusiveness.
