The All Progressives Congress (APC) Executive Council, Elders, and Stakeholders in Ibiono Ibom Local Government Area, Akwa Ibom State have refuted the rumored expulsion of Senator Ita Enang, a former Senior Special Advisor to President Muhammadu Buhari on Niger Delta Affairs, from the party.
In a statement released on Thursday in Uyo, the local government chapter chairman, Mr. Umoh Ekop, claimed that the people responsible for the alleged letter of expulsion were outsiders to the APC.

Ekop argued that Enang never did anything wrong that should have led to his expulsion from the party, calling the alleged expulsion an insult.
“Normally, we would have permitted the said publication, knowing that the said publication is meaningless and does not have the weight capacity to divert attention from the party or the Distinguish Senator Ita Enang, who is the backbone of the party at the Local Government Area and State government levels,” he said.
“We want to correct the record and state that Senator Ita Enang is still a member of the All Progressives Congress, Eastern Ward 2, Ibiono Ibom Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, for the benefit of the public who may be misled to believe these lies from the pit of hell.
“We have never heard of or received a petition from the Eastern Ward 2 Ward Chairman against Senator Ita Enang.

“Senator Ita Enang is the only representative of the party at the local level, as well as the well-known speaker for the party in Akwa Ibom State,”
Asserting that such a move was the work of troublemakers and an insult to the entire Ibiono Ibom LGA, the chapter chairman urged those responsible for the publication to offer an unreserved apology to Enang within 72 hours.
He characterized the former presidential aide as a very devoted, committed, and sincere APC member who has been interrogating the opposition on the subject of transparency with regard to state public funds.
He stated that Enang has received a vote of confidence from the party’s chapter executive, elders, and all of the APC members in Ibiono Ibom, and he therefore urged the entire APC family at all levels and the general public to disregard such publication.
