APGA Denies involvement in Ozubulu massacre

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, Mr Victor Oye, on Friday refuted an allegation by the Indigenous People of Biafra that it sponsored the recent killings at a church in Ozubulu, Anambra.

He made this known when Anambra Governor, Willie Obiano, came to the National Secretariat of the party in Abuja to submit his nomination form.

Oye said, “I want to use this opportunity to dispute the allegation that APGA had a hand in the killings.

“APGA has never at any time sponsored the killing of innocent people regardless of what people are saying and as alleged by IPOB and we can stand at the World Court or anywhere to say this.

 Anambra government is run on transparency, fear of God, love of the people and commitment to accountability; how can such a government begin to kill people?

“This is the same government that held the `Ozuemena’ which is the burial or re-burial for all who died in the civil war; so, how can a man who has done all these turnaround and kill his innocent people?’’

He said the allegation was the making of evil people, to distort the good work of the governor, but said that such people would fail.

The chairman assured the governor of the party’s support, adding that the APGA family was standing solidly behind him.
