The All Progressives Congress in Enugu State has expelled a former Secretary to the State Government, Chief Onyemauche Nnamani.
The expulsion of Nnamani was announced by the Chairman of the APC in Enugu State, Dr. Ben Nwoye, on Sunday.
The former SSG, according to Nwoye, was expelled for taking the APC to court without first ventilating his grievances through internal mechanisms provided in the party’s constitution.
He said the decision to head to the court contravened the provisions of Article 21 of the APC constitution, which deals with discipline of members.
Nnamani, who served as SSG during the administration of former Governor Chimaroke Nnamani, contested the position of the National Vice Chairman of the APC for the South East during the party’s National Convention.
The election was won by the incumbent, Chief Emma Eneukwu.
Nwoye disclosed that a petition filed by Nnamani against the outcome of the election was dismissed by the National Convention Appeal Committee.
He said Nnamani then dragged the party and Eneukwu to court.
