Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu McAshers Objections to Switching Sides: APC Ain't the Place for Her
"Bianca Ojukwu Declares No Plans to Switch Parties to APC"
In the midst of whispers about a potential switch to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu, firmly deny any such intentions. Our source confirms that she remains a die-hard member of the Board of Trustees of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
During a recent press engagement following President Bola Tinubu's visit to Anambra State, Ojukwu asserted her steadfast allegiance to APGA, stating, "I'm a major player in the APGA—a mainstay, if you will. I haven't got the slightest hankering to defect."
Tinubu's visit showcased his open-mindedness and unbiased approach to leadership, embodying a president who serves all Nigerians unconditionally, regardless of political party, ethnicity, or religious beliefs. Ojukwu also expressed APGA's commitment to ensuring Tinubu's re-election in 2027.
In her effusive praise, she remarked, "This visit was a testament to his inclusiveness and his mission to serve every single one of us. He transcends political boundaries, providing hope and uniting our nation."
Ojukwu expressed her delight with the projects initiated by Tinubu during his tour of Awka, including the Solution Fun City within the Nnamdi Azikiwe University complex and the imposing Government House of Anambra State. She underlined Soludo's hard work during his tenure, applauding the execution of his ambitious vision with utmost clarity and determination.
