“Onyejeocha has been in the national assembly since 2007 until the February 25 general election when she was defeated by Hon. Amobi Ogah with a very wide margin.

“Her loss to Amobi Ogah was a pill too hard to swallow hence she has vowed to use all her connections to ensure that the election declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC is upturned in her favour.

“Her political ambition was to be the Speaker of the Federal House of Representatives. She has also boasted that powers that be in Aso Rock have promised her the speakership, a position she contested in 2019 but lost to Femi Gbajabiamila, who now is the Chief of Staff in the Tinubu administration. Onyejeocha believes that the Isikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency is her chiefdom, however, the result of that election altered all the plans and permutation for Onyejeocha who saw her ambition drifting.

“For her to be the Speaker she must first win the seat at the Reps and Amobi Ogah was the only stumbling block. Therefore, he must go at all costs.

“Onyejeocha with strong support from the Presidency plotted to be part of the 10th NASS using the instrument of the Tribunal,” the party said.

The party accused her of having worked tirelessly to ensure that the Abia State election petition tribunal pronounced her the duly elected member by turning the rules of the election on the head.

“With her limitless access to funds, it wasn’t difficult for her to get Amobi Ogah sacked by the Tribunal”, the party said.
