The National Chairman of the Progressive Peoples Alliance, Chief Sam Nkire, has told all the party’s 36 state chairmen and Abuja not to engage in any talk of alliance or co-operation with any political party in their various areas, particularly in Abia State.
Nkire handed down this warning while exchanging views with the Abia State Chairman of PPA, Prince Emeka Okafor, over the rumour that they were allowed to align with a particular political party in Abia State.
According to the PPA national chairman, the party was engaged in alliance talks only at the national level and has not mandated any state chairman to talk on its behalf.
Nkire disclosed that the party was in the meantime strategising on how to forcefully participate in the forthcoming governorship elections in both Anambra and Ekiti States in 2014.
The PPA boss said elections in the two states would be won and lost on the basis of the quality of candidates presented not the party’s name or size.
He reminded PPA members that the only way the party could come back to its winning ways was through commitment, loyalty and hard work.
