A source, who spoke to APGA Interactive Forum, has revealed that president-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari, refused to see Chief Victor Umeh who had nicodemously gone to meet with him.
We learnt that it was the third time Chief Umeh requested to have an audience with the president-elect.
Our investigation revealed that some aides to Buhari blocked Umeh from gaining access to him and had reportedly informed Buhari of the pending case of disqualification against him at the Federal High Court Awka being sponsored by Umeh and Ubanese.
Umeh had requested the court to disqualify Buhari claiming that the general is not a Nigerian among other prayers.
The perception within Buhari camp is that Umeh is a dangerous politician whose loyalty cannot be guaranteed.
They see him as a betrayal that can do anything to grab power of which the president-elect was advised to avoid him.
Umeh was at the reception waiting to be ushered in, to meet with Buhari till around 11pm in the night when the security ordered him out.
It is obvious that Ogbunigwe is finished. He should accept his fate, make peace with himself and All Progressives Grand Alliance [APGA] and bow out.
It could be recalled that Victor Umeh just recently lost his senatorial bid to Iyom Uche Ekwunife who beat him hands down to grab the Anambra senatorial slot.
