APGA Favours Buhari To Emerge As President by Sheggy13(m): 5:06am On Jan 05, 2015
The All Progressive Grand Alliance says it cannot throw its
weight behind President Goodluck Jonathan as it is very
likely that the candidate of the All progressives Congress,
Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), will emerge the
winner of the presidential election next month.

The Chairman of the Lagos State chapter of APGA, Mr.
Campbell Umeh-Nzekwe, who is also a special adviser to
the national chairman of the party, said this during an
interview with our correspondent, on Sunday.

Umeh-Nzekwe said Jonathan’s problem was compounded
by the fact that the motion to adopt him as the consensus
candidate of the Igbo for the 2015 presidential election
failed at the Ime-Obi (inner caucus) meeting of the
Ohanaeze Ndigbo, on Saturday, in Enugu.

He added that the sermon of renowned Enugu-based
Catholic priest, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, that Jonathan had
failed and should step down seemed to have sent
shockwaves across the South-East.

He said the party was sure that Jonathan would not win
votes in the North.

He said, “The game has changed. As it is, Jonathan has no
chance of winning. Buhari seems to have taken over. The
PDP has collapsed in the North if you care to know. All
those who are running to Aso Rock and making promises to the President are just deceiving him.”

When asked if APGA would be supporting Buhari next
month, Umeh-Nzekwe said he could not say for sure.

He said, “Jonathan is a sitting President with incumbency
factor in his favour but Buhari has the masses and a cult
following in the North. In 2011, Buhari won 12 million votes
in the North with his rag-tag party, the Congress for
Progressive Change, without a single governor or senator to
campaign for him.

“Today, his party, the APC, has 14 governors, 43 senators
and 176 Reps as well as 625 House of Assembly members.
Also, the APC has dominant control of the North-West with
a total number of 18.4 million voters and North-East with
10.2 million while South-West has 13.4 million voters.

“ The PDP has dominant control of the North-Central and
Abuja with 10.4 million voters while the South-South has
8.5 million and South-East has 7.2 million votes.
“However, no zone has achieved 50 per cent of votes cast
but northern voters are more committed and trustworthy
than those in the South.

“Also, look at Jonathan’s campaign team. He has Col.
Ahmadu Ali (retd.) as his Director General and Peter Obi as
the deputy while Buhari has Governor Rotimi Amaechi and
Senator Olorunnimbe Mamora as director general and
deputy respectively. It is time for Ndi Igbo to review their
strategy.”
