Anambra Guber: APGA Chieftain Assures On Victory

Embattled National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, Chief Victor Oye, has said despite the contrived crisis within the party, APGA remains the party to beat in the November 6 Governorship Election, in Anambra State.
Oye who said this in an interview in Abuja, on Friday explained that his purported sack by some individuals parading themselves as the National Executive Committee of the party was a threat to Nigeria’s democracy.
“Since 2006 when APGA came to power in Anambra, it has continued to deliver on its election promises year in year out. Peter Obi came in then, and performed superlatively, Willie Obiano has come now and he is doing better, all to the glory of God and the betterment of the people of Anambra State.”
According to him, a comprehensive amendment to the Electoral Act was required to forestall a repeat of the illegality which wanted to be passed off as a NEC meeting of his party.
The APGA chairman said, “Go to INEC to ascertain who is the rightful National Chairman of the party. It is not a contention, I and my executives were elected on the 31st of May, 2019, through a nationally recognized convention, witnessed by INEC and since 2019, we have been doing our businesses without any let or hindrance, but every four years people come up to cause confusion in the party.
“But it is not peculiar to APGA, it is in every political party, but it is like, that of APGA, is becoming very notorious and this is one thing that we have to stop.
“What happened, if not properly handled, can give room to more serious national embarrassment. People can now be emboldened to go on air, once you can pay a fee. Then you can go on air and announce whatever you like, then the social media will spread it, you know the thing spreads in seconds. Now, what I believe could be done is to make the situation and the conditions tighter and stricter.”
