We’re Backing Only Tinubu’s Re-Election, Not APC Aspirants — APGA Chieftain by chopnaira(op): 9:45pm On Apr 26
The National Coordinator of the All Progressives Grand Alliance Media Warriors Forum, Chinedu Obigwe, has clarified that the party is only backing the re-election of President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general elections and not the aspirants of the All Progressives Congress.

Obigwe said the declaration by Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, is only about the state government’s working relationship with President Tinubu’s administration.

Recall that Soludo, who is also the national leader of APGA, has been running with the mantra, “Progressives are working together,” which he meant to imply that both APGA and APC are working together ahead of the 2027 general elections.

As a result, some APC aspirants contesting for Senate, House of Representatives, and State Assembly elections in Anambra have been circulating campaign posters bearing the images of Tinubu, Soludo, and themselves, with the claim that “progressives are working together.”

However, reacting to the development in a press statement released on Sunday, the National Coordinator of APGA’s Media Warriors Forum, Chinedu Obigwe, urged Anambra people not to be deceived by the posters, insisting that the support is only for the President and not for APC aspirants contesting for Senate, House of Representatives, and House of Assembly elections in the state.

Obigwe said APGA is supporting the president’s re-election but will field candidates for Senate, House of Representatives, and House of Assembly elections in Anambra, adding that it is a must-win for APGA.

The statement read, “With the declaration of the National Leader of APGA, Governor Chukwuma Soludo, we are unapologetically supporting President Bola Tinubu’s re-election, but Senate, House of Representatives, and House of Assembly elections in Anambra are a must-win for APGA.

“The general public should not be deceived by the drowning campaign gimmicks of Anambra opposition politicians.

“Some APC House of Representatives aspirants are circulating campaign posters that contain the photos of Governor Soludo, President Tinubu, and themselves on social media, with a claim that ‘progressives are working together.’

“They are dwelling in self-deceit and should be ignored. Anambra electorates cannot be deceived with such gimmicks.

“The ‘progressives are working together’ declaration of our beloved Governor Soludo has to do with the Anambra State government’s working relationship with President Tinubu’s administration and the undiluted support APGA, under the guidance of Governor Soludo, is giving President Tinubu’s administration.

“It has nothing to do with Governor Soludo supporting APC aspirants contesting for Senate, House of Representatives, and House of Assembly elections in Anambra.

“Soludo will lead the campaign for Anambra electorates to support President Tinubu’s re-election and APGA’s yet-to-be-produced candidates in Anambra for Senate, House of Representatives, and House of Assembly elections.

“In Anambra, it is Tinubu for President, APGA for Senate, House of Representatives, and House of Assembly seats.”

APGA needs to be studied!

The party is not getting the attention it deserves !

APGA 111 should be a mandatory course for all Nigerian university undergraduates

That’s the only party Peter did not destroy! How did they do it!

Anyways, let me take this medium to appreciate all APGA party members. It would have been near to impossible without your support for His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

We making history and history will always remember us as the disciples of the last demigod.

I really want to know why Obi left APGA, his personality does not look one who jumps ship without a cogent reason. What was the agenda or sacrifice?

Soludo has only one vote. He cannot vote for the south east.

If not for nepotism in Nigeria political space, who in his right sense will want Tinubu for a second term.

soludo foolishness is making apga irrelevance to national assembly in anambra state, 2027 may be worst for apga in national assembly election in anambra

Soludo is leading APGA astray

APGA have lost focus

This anti-party behavior and the confusion that Soludo and APGA are putting themselves into may prevent them from even delivering their own candidates in the general election.

I really pity those who will fly the party’s flag in the general election. How will they explain to their electorate why they should vote for Tinubu, who has inflicted untold hardship, strife, rising inflation, worsening insecurity, and electricity blackouts?

That difficult explanation is what APGA candidates in the general election will have to work on, rather than selling themselves because it will surely rob off on them

Tinubu is a very bad product

Peter Obi should just go and contest for Senate and forget this Presidency thing. Once he gets there he might be made the minority leader. My candid advise to him.

What are you say just sit down and listen to yourself again. Did you make any sense? Stop deceiving yourself and not the people of Anambra state.

Like you don't know Baba Tinubu .

His modus operandi is to .. threaten and offer benefits at the same time.

Whoever would choose the bullet on themselves and family over an easy 100million dollar loot?

It's easy to choose abeg..
