Obiano's rumored plans to defect to APC, false - APGA

The rumoured defection of the Anambra State Governor, Willy Obiano to the All Progressives Congress, APC, is false, his party, All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA has said.

The party said there was no iota of the truth in the speculations that Obiano may dump the APGA for the APC to contest the Anambra North Senatorial Election in 2023.

Obiano is set to complete his 8-year tenure in office on March 17, 2022.

Chinedu Obigwe, the National Coordinator of APGA Media Warriors Forum said in a statement on Tuesday, said Obiano is not planning to dump APGA for APC.

According to him, “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( APGA).

“Governor Obiano is not planning to defect to APC rather he is committed to ensuring that a good successor who 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.

“The general public and governor Obiano’s fans are advised to disregard the disgruntled opposition elements’ fabricated tissue of lies in this election season because they are politically motivated.”
