The All Progressives Congress (APC), Enugu State, has expelled a former Secretary to the State Government, Chief Onyemauche Nnamani, over alleged misconduct.
The expulsion was announced on Sunday by the Chairman of the party in Enugu, Dr Ben Nwoye,
According to him, Nnamani, a former SSG during the tenure of former governor Chimaraoke Nnamani, was expelled for dragging the party to court without first seeking to address his grievances through internal mechanisms provided in the party’s constitution.
He said Nnamani’s action was contrary to provisions of Article 21 of the APC constitution, which deals with ‘discipline of members.’
