[Shock] Something Is Happening In APGA… I am Surprised!

The current National Leader of the Party and Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, is not sparing anything in this disruptive process.

For the first time ever, according to records available to me, nomination forms were dispensed free of charge to all who aspire to lead the Party across ALL levels and positions. This means, Ifeanyi the Vulcanizer who has constantly mobilized and won his polling booth for APGA can now contest to lead the Party in his Ward, Local Government or even State. The same goes for Mama Nkiru the pepper seller in Eke Nibo,  who is now going about campaigning to be a Party Executive. This is the power of leadership.

The troubles and complains that follow the monetization of party politics is gradually phasing out in APGA, and being replaced with strong ideological connections where Party men and women are driven by the sheer desire to sustain the enduring principles that hold them together. This is the actual pathway to Societal development. As we all know, to whom much is collected from, much will also be demanded from or removed from the receivers. Nothing beats politics of development, the type that our founding fathers played in the old Eastern region that resulted in massive economic prosperity in that time.

Nwannem metu aka na obi k’ibata APGA!

Indeed, the future we seek is in our past.
