The All Progressives Grand Alliance is stricken by a crisis of confidence as the Board of Trustees and National Working Committee are feuding over the zoning of its presidential candidate in the 2019 general elections.

Investigations by our correspondent showed that while the BOT had resolved that the party’s presidential slot be zoned to the north, the NWC said it was not consulted in the resolution.

The BOT meeting that took the decision was, it was learnt, held at Governor’s Lodge, Amawbia, near Awka, the state capital.

The meeting, it was gathered, was held at the instance of Governor Willie Obiano, who is the party’s National Leader and BOT chairman.

A communiqué of the meeting stated that the board members deliberated on the future of the party, with specific attention given to the upcoming general election and the options facing the party.

Stating the position of the BOT , the Secretary of the board, Sani Shinkafi, confirmed the decision.

He said,“After due considerations based on popular demand by party members, the party has resolved to field a presidential candidate with the ticket zoned to the North, while the Vice Presidential candidate will come from the South -East.”

But a member of the NWC of the party, who pleaded anonymity, said the NWC was not consulted when the BOT took the decision.

He said,”The decision cannot stand. It’s undemocratic and dictatorial. APGA has not taken any decision on the 2019 presidential ticket.

“Any person or group of persons purporting that such decision has been taken by our great party are on their own.

“My advice is that certain people should not allow their personal interests to destroy this party that had cost us our time and resources.

It was gathered that a meeting of the BOT and NWC is expected to hold on September 12.

shut up there. at dis point in time ,without a northern candidate u can never defeat pdp or apc in 2019. wisdom is profitable.

Smart move by APGA, APC terrorists were hoping that APGA would field an Igbo presidential candidate and end up dividing their votes but by ceding it to the north, they have killed two birds with one stone that is let them have their turn in all the parties. Igbos will give a block vote to anything else than the old and lifeless fossil.

And the children of Hate will come here and start shouting Marginalized, If APGA the Igbo Party can Zone their presidential ticket to the Hausa Fulani... What else can we say?

North is the seat of power cause Yoruba's are yet to realize they are under South, the only Yoruba man that is aware he's from South is Obasanjo.
