APC collapsing, not best place to go, says Imoke
Ada Wodu, Calabar
Published 24 May 2021
Former governor of Cross River State, Liyel Imoke, has said the All Progressives Congress is a party that is collapsing and not the best place to go.
He stated this at the stakeholders’ meeting of the Peoples Democratic Party held on Sunday at Transcorp Hotel, Calabar.
The meeting’s main agenda was the defection of the state Governor, Prof Ben Ayade, from the PDP to the APC last Thursday.
“APC is a party that is collapsing. It is not a place to go for Cross River. We will revive the glory of Cross River. I took risks to see the emergence of this government. They even accused me of collecting money. It is an insult,” Imoke said.
