Sen. Ifeanyi Ararume has refuted Media reports that he had defected from All Progressive Congress (APC) to the Labour Party (LP).
In a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday and signed by Hon. Stanley Nzekwe, a Director in Ararume’s Destiny Organisation, Ararume described as fallacious reports that he had concluded arrangements to join the LP to contest the forthcoming Imo State Governorship election.
“I am still a member of the APC and have no reason to leave my party now,” he was quoted as saying in the statement.
The two-time senator who represented Imo North Senatorial District in the Senate between 1999 and 2007, said that his preoccupation was to make his contributions to the current efforts to resolve the economic, political and security challenges confronting the country.
He described himself as a loyal and committed party man who would not just jump out of a party where there was no reason for that.
Ararume advised journalists to get their facts right before publishing “fake stories” which could embarrass people and also jeopardize their integrity.
He added that he would always make any political decision he takes known to the public through the media.
He stressed that there was no need to speculate or feed the public with lies.
