The Court of Appeal, sitting in Owerri judicial Division, has sacked the Abia state chairman of the All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA, Rev. Augustine Ehiemere, and declared Prince Nnanna Ukaegbu, as the authentic chairman of the party in the state.

An Abia State High Court sitting at Umuahia, had in September 2018, granted an order setting aside the party executives at the Ward, Local Government, zonal and state chapters of the party.
