Anambra Governor Chukwuma Soludo has said that the state is a member of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA).
Soludo said this through his Press Secretary, Christian Aburime, in response to a claim attributed to Chief Basil Ejidike that APGA will be extinct by 2025.
Aburime, who said the APC did not exist in Anambra, argued that the state will always be ruled by the APGA because the people had come to embrace it as their own political organization.
He said Soludo had converted the entire state into a building site in two years, and that only the blind would deny seeing the shift.
“Under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a well-known democrat and supporter of democracy, the APC-led federal government would
“We do not like to meddle in the elections of other states,” Aburime stated in a statement.
“APC members in Anambra are well aware that the party does not exist in this state and will never exist because this is APGA territory.”
“From what the APC chairman in Anambra has been saying, it appears that he is not a member of the people of Anambra State.” He continues claiming that Soludo has done nothing; perhaps he was walking about blindfolded.
“He can see the roads and other infrastructure.” There are so many things Soludo is doing that any regular person can notice them. “Something has to be wrong somewhere,” he reasoned.
Aburime stated that Soludo was far ahead of the APC’s recurring candidates, When the ballots were cast, the governor’s works would speak loudly for him.
He referred to Soludo as a governor for the poor, claiming that his free education policy, free prenatal and delivery care, and presents for nursing mothers gave his administration a human face.
Soludo, he claims, is a statesman rather than a politician. So you can’t compare politicians with no ideology to Soludo, a statesman with his own philosophy and ideas.
“Soludo is the only governor that has shown so much empathy and compassion for the downtrodden,” he told reporters.
