Party Woes: APGA Takes Aim at the "Non-Existent" APC in Anambra State
"Valentine Ozigbo: Soludo Lacks Sufficient Resources to Support Ukachukwu; Their Political Clout Differentiates" - APGA (Paraphrased)
In a no-holds-barred statement, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has fired a shot across the bow of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State, claiming that the APC doesn't even exist there!
The bold declaration came in response to claims made by APC aspirant, Valentine Ozigbo, who accused the incumbent governor of Anambra State, Charles Soludo, of sponsoring APC candidate Nicholas Ukachukwu to weaken the APC.
During a recent televised interview, Ozigbo, who finished as a runner-up to Ukachukwu in the APC's governorship primary held in April, was quoted asserting that Soludo was funding Ukachukwu to weaken the APC.
However, APGA, through its National Coordinator of Media Warriors Forum, Chinedu Obigwe, has dismissed Ozigbo's comments as desperate and baseless. Describing Ozigbo as the architect of his own political misfortune, Obigwe stated that the aspiring politician should blame himself for making poor political decisions.
"We've had a good laugh at Valentine Ozigbo's latest Channels TV interview," read the statement from APGA, "In the interview, he made false accusations against Governor Soludo of funding Ukachukwu to weaken the APC."
But here's the kicker: APGA claims that the APC does not exist in Anambra State!
APC: A Scandalous Absence
The statement goes on to explain that during the tenure of President Muhammadu Buhari, the leadership of Anambra APC, led by Basil Ejidike (their State Chairman), confessed to Vice President Yemi Osibanjo that they weren't in existence in Anambra State.
This admission, according to APGA, means that a non-existent party cannot pose a threat to Soludo or have the power to weaken its position.
Ozigbo: A Fake Fabrication?
APGA challenges Ozigbo to come clean about his allegations against Soludo and to stop living a "fake and pretentious lifestyle." The party asserts that Soludo has no involvement with the APC candidate and cannot be funding him.
The turmoil within the APC, fueled by defections and resignations, suggests that the party is in shambles, which could hamper its chances in the upcoming gubernatorial election. In contrast, APGA appears confident in its position, ready to capitalize on the APC's misfortunes and prove that the strongest party in Anambra State is none other than APGA.

Enrichment Data:
The current status of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State, as reported in recent news, does not directly include statements from the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). However, the APC is facing internal unrest following its governorship primary. Senator Nicholas Ukachukwu won the APC ticket for the 2025 Anambra governorship election but faced substantial opposition, leading to resignations and defections within the party[1][2]. This unrest suggests that the APC is experiencing internal divisions, which could weaken its position in the upcoming election.
Given the lack of direct commentary from APGA, it can be inferred that APGA might view this turmoil as an opportunity to strengthen its own position in the 2025 election. However, specific statements from APGA on the matter are not provided in the available information. The main focus has been on APC's internal crisis and its implications for the party's performance in the upcoming elections[2][3].
