Angami Public Organisation (APO), reaffirmed its July 12, 2017 decision made by its executive council to “cease working under the present president of Naga Hoho” and also reiterate its earlier stand of “detachment with Naga Hoho till today.” Stating this through a joint statement, APO president Dr. Kepelhusie Terhüja and information and publicity secretary Mrs. Neithono Sothu also clarified that APO has nothing to do with the “threats” made by Naga Hoho (at the recent Senapati declaration) “since APO is no longer a constituent member of the Hoho.”
