The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) says there is no truth behind speculations that Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State is planning to dump the party for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Rumour circulating suggested Obiano could dump APGA to join APC to vie for the Anambra North Senatorial seat in 2023.
First elected on APGA’s platform in 2014, Obiano is due to complete his second term on March 17, 2022.
However, the party said that the Anambra governor was not planning to jump ship as predicted in some quarters.

“Every election season, the disgruntled opposition elements are known for being more desperate and resorting to all manners of blackmail in a condemnable bid to seize power from the ruling party.
“Governor Obiano is not planning to defect to APC rather, he is committed to ensuring that a good successor that will continue the good works he is doing in Anambra from where he stopped emerges from APGA.
“This is the goal he fixed his eyes on actualising and nothing will stop him from doing that.
“Obiano remains a committed leader of APGA that is determined to take the party to greater heights,” read a Tuesday statement signed by National Coordinator of APGA Media Warriors Forum, Chinedu Obigwe.
