Uche Nwosu not a registered member of our party – AA National Chairman rejects Okorocha's son-in-law

The Governorship ambition of Uche Nwosu, has suffered a major setback.

Recall that the embattled son-in-law to Governor Rochas Okorocha, defected to Action Alliance (AA) after he failed to secure governorship ticket of APC, but the AA national chairman, Tunde Anifowose-Kelani, said that Nwosu is neither a member of the party nor its governorship candidate.

According to Nigerian Tribune, Anifowose-Kelani made this known in a statement signed and made available to journalists in Abuja on Thursday, December 6.

He maintained that Nwosu is yet to become a registered member of the party, and therefore, can not be recognised as the party’s standard-bearer for Imo state in the forthcoming general elections.

According to him, “Uche Nwosu is not yet a member of our party and cannot come through the back door to be a gubernatorial candidate of the party in Imo state.”

The AA national chairman further said that the party has rules and regulations guiding its operation, adding that in order to become a registered member, there are due process such person must follow.

Kelani, therefore, advised that if Uche Nwosu really wants to be a registered member of Action Alliance (AA) party, he should do the needful.

“People of such pedigree should know better than junk politicking which would not help towards 2019.”
