Immediate past Minister of State for Mines and Steel Development, Chief Uche Ogah, has denied speculations that he had dumped the All Progressives Congress for the Peoples Democratic Party.

He described as false the claim that he dumped the APC after losing his bid to clinch the party’s governorship ticket in Abia State.

Ogah, who made the clarification in Umuahia, the Abia State capital on Sunday, urged his supporters to vote for APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, and other APC candidates in the state.

He noted that he was the first person to congratulate the APC governorship candidate in the state, Chief Ikechi Emenike, when the Supreme Court declared him winner of the legal battle over the APC governorship ticket.

Ogah said, “We have the largest political structure in Abia State. No governorship candidate can win election in Abia without our structure.

“However, neither Emenike nor any other person vying for office of governor has approached us for support, but I urge our members to vote for the APC presidential candidate and members of our Abia rejoice structure vying for the national and state assembly seats.

“This time around, your vote will count, so vote for our people because we have the capacity to deliver Abia from its present state of quagmire,” he said.

The ex-minister commended the Federal Government for introducing the cashless policy, adding that it had reduced many vices in the country, including kidnapping and armed robbery.
