The Progressive Group, under the umbrella of the All Progressive Congress, APC, has said it would gladly welcome the Governor of Enugu State, Barr. Peter Mbah, a member of Peoples Democratic Party PDP, into the APC whenever he decides to join the party.
The former State Chairman of the Party, Dr. Ben Nwoye, made the remarks during the weekend at the Progressive Groups stakeholders meeting held at Universal Hotel, Independence Layout, Enugu.
Nwoye dismissed claims that the suspended state chairman, Ugo Agbala, and the Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Uche Nnaji, could block Governor Mbahs entry into the APC.
He said that the Progressive Group comprises members of APC in Enugu State, some apolitical individuals, and members of other political parties who are progressive-minded and committed to the betterment of the country and Enugu State in particular would never hesitate to welcome Mbah into APC.
