Protesters urge Buhari, Buni to intervene
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State has condemned the clash between supporters of Senator Rochas Okorocha and the state governor, Hope Uzodinma, urging the duo not to turn the state into a theatre of war.
The supporters of Okorocha and Uzodinma had clashed on Sunday over the sealing of Royal Spring Palm Estate Hotel, Akachi, by the state government. Two persons were reportedly killed during the clash. APC in the state is enmeshed in a crisis following the political differences and feud between Okorocha and Uzodinma.
The party, through its Publicity Secretary Ogubundu Nwadike, said it was utterly disgusting that the present APC government in the state has turned Imo into a terror zone, theatre of war and conflict.

The ruling All Progressives Congress APC has hailed the federal government’s introduction of a Highway Development Management Initiative HDMI, which will grant licences to individuals and other private concerns to build, operate and maintain highways across the country.
About 12 federal roads have been pencilled down for the first phase of the initiative.
National Secretary of the APC’s Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee, Sen.

The nationwide membership registration and revalidation exercise of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has been extended by three weeks, and will now end on March 31.
The exercise which began on February 9 across the 36 states of the federation as well as the Federal Capital Territory, was to last for two weeks but the extension, according to the National Secretary of the Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) of the party, Sen. John James Akpanudoedehe, in a statement in Abuja on Sunday, is to ensure the party captures more intending members.
Akpanudoedehe noted that the feedback across the states has been overwhelming and beyond the projected success level of the party with a massive turnout of intending registrants, hence the need to extend the exercise, adding that the massive turnout is responsible for the shortage of registration materials, hence the need for an extension.
