Ebonyi State Governor, Francis Nwifuru, has threatened to sack any local government chairman who fails to deliver his council area to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 elections.
Nwifuru issued the warning on Tuesday in Abakaliki while inaugurating the newly elected chairmen and vice chairmen of the state’s 13 local government areas.
The governor said, “Any chairman who fails to win his council will be removed from office and replaced with a councillor”.
“I want this information to be on the headlines of newspapers because, as politicians, we would not speak in secret.” he said.
