“But to my surprise we just woke up and learnt that some members of the national working committee had sued the party and sought for the dissolution of the national working committee .

According to the national vice chairman North west in the last two weeks an order was circulating that he was part of those who sued the party at a federal high court seeking the court to dissolve the Muhammad Nalado’s led national working committee which is not true.

“If I can remember the crisis erupted during the Anambra Governorship election over interest of some party members on who will fly accord party’s flag in Anambra.”

Then misunderstanding arise between the national vice chairman of the party In the south south Mr innocent Vincent”

The party convened a meeting of the NWC and after extending our tenure the Board of trustee chairman Reverend Adeneyi and National Vice Chairman south south Joseph James approached me that the NWC tenure has expired and there is the need for us to take court action.

I further told them that since we are part of the caretaker committee there is no basis for us to take the NWC to court and seek for its Dissolution.

Few days back the national chairman of the party sent me a document that we have taken them to court and where the court orders for their dissolution, I emphasized to the chairman that was not a party to it.

I tried to call the BOT chairman Reverend Adeniyi but to no avail .

Conducting a convention is costly so we decided to create a caretaker committee and as we approach 2023, we were reappointed again, those reverend Adeneyi BOT chairman, Mr James John South South national vice chairman.

How can I be a party to the dissolution of an exco that I am part of.

I want to assure the Accord Party stakeholders and the National Working Committee that I am not part of those who sued the party.

I am a loyal member of accord party and its caretaker committee and will continue to be one.

The governing council of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University has been dissolved by President Bola Tinubu.

The president dissolved the council and approved the removal of the institution’s vice-chancellor Bernard Odoh and the university registrar, Rosemary Nwokike.

A statement by Bayo Onanuga, the special adviser to the president on information and strategy said the action by Tinubu follows allegations of procedural violations in the appointment of the Vice-Chancellor.

He also said that the council led by Greg Ozumba Mbadiwe and including five other members—Hafiz Oladejo, Augustine Onyedebelu, Engr. Amioleran Osahon, and Rtd. Gen. Funsho Oyeneyin was accused of bypassing due process to appoint an unqualified candidate, prompting federal intervention.

Onanuga said, “The sacking of the governing council and officials followed reports that the council illegally appointed an unqualified vice-chancellor without following due process.

He added that following the controversial appointment, the Federal Government stepped in to address the rivalry between the university’s Senate and the governing council of the institution.

“The government expressed concern over the council’s apparent disregard for the university’s governing laws in its selection process”, Onanuga added.
