Leadership (Abuja) Bassey Ekpo Bassey 26 May 2011 Abuja — Although frantic efforts were made within the football family to resolve the crack within football stakeholders, another bombshell was dropped yesterday when Chief Oyuki Obaski made available a letter of his resignation from the Nigeria Football Federation appeals committee. In a strongly worded letter to the secretary general of the football federation, he hinged his reason for resignation on the level of inconsistency at play in the federation. He described it as the major reason why the nation's football has not done relatively well in spite of the resources that are heaped on it at the tax payer's expense

All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, Abia State, has been commen-ded for withdrawing its election petition against Governor Theodore Orji.

Former media adviser to the governor, Ugochukwu Emezue, in a statement hailed the action of APGA leadership, which he described as commenda-ble.

The opposition party, Tuesday, through its counsel, Mr. Chukwuemeka Nwachukwu, filed an application to withdraw the petition, which the Tribunal Chairman, Justice Mobolaji Ojo, obliged by striking out the petition.

Ugochukwu said APGA had done well by accepting the governor’s call on  opposition parties to join forces with him to build Abia in the next four years.

Ugochukwu urged APGA to remain in the vanguard of ensuring that Abia was transformed through valuable contribution. He urged other parties to emulate APGA and join the crusade to build a new Abia  with a strong education, infrastructure and security.
