APGA To Control 3 Out Of 5 South East States As Alex Oti Defects by Collynzo9: 5:01pm On Nov 11, 2014 |
Ex-Diamond Bank MD dumps PDP, picks APGA guber form A Former Managing Director of Diamond Bank Plc, Dr. Alex Oti, on Tuesday in Abuja dumped the Peoples Democratic Party and picked the All Progressives Grand Alliance nomination form for the 2015 governorship elections in Abia State. Meanwhile, APGA has rescheduled its activities for the conduct of its primaries to select its candidates for next year’s elections. Oti picked the APGA governorship nomination form after paying the N2 million for the expression of interest and the N10 million for the nomination form at the APGA national headquarters. He premised his decision to join APGA on his strong beliefs in the party’s ideology and his “determination to rescue Abia State from total collapse.” Oti said, “I have left the PDP and to me, coming to APGA is like home-coming. I like to use this opportunity to thank APGA leadership for warmly welcoming me to your office and welcoming me home. I have always said that APGA is not a political party but a religion for Nigerians, some of you will recall that when our national leader (Chukwuemeka Ojukwu) died, we did everything to make sure that he was given a befitting burial. I was the Chairman of the finance sub-committee. “I am very happy to be back home, we have a mission to take back our state and put it back on the part of progress and industrialization. We have started that journey, we know that there are a whole lot we could do. When I look at Aba, I regret that I did not take this decision to serve my people. It is a great sacrifice for me to leave what I was doing until a few weeks ago. But it is not too late, we are here to win and we must win.” The National Chairman of APGA, Chief Victor Umeh while welcoming Oti back to the party assured every aspirant on the party’s platform of a level- playing field. According to him, APGA was determined to win more seats in next year’s general elections. www.punchng.com/news/ex-diamond-bank-md-dumps-pdp-picks-apga-guber-form/ 2 Likes |

I so saw this coming and I will continue to laugh at people who say APGA is dying. It just doesn't make sense for this man to be coming from the same party that produced the failure called T.A. Orji even though they have nothing else in common. Welcome to APGA Oti. Anambra - Obiano (APGA) Imo - Iheanacho (APGA) Abia - Oti (APGA) Iseeeeeee! 12 Likes 2 Shares |

Collynzo9:well it depends on whether reagan ufomba is still interested as he also seems to be interested in the race..dont know whether apga has strong followership in abia and i also do not know otti's grassroot appeal..it was obvious he was going to move since t a orji the cretin has closed the door to all other aspirants in pdp by imposing okezie ikpeazu. 1 Like |

asha80: ^^^It's obvious that -like Uzor Kalu before him- T A Orji would like to install another inept and visionless Governor in Umuahia to help cover his tracks and ignore the 8 years of waste and stealing that went on during his 2 terms in office! Abians voting strategy should be to see who T A Orji prefers, and vote anyone else.....even if it means voting in Goofy as Governor! They can't possibly fare any worse than they've done these past 15 wasted years can they!? 1 Like |

Re: APGA To Control 3 Out Of 5 South East States As Alex Oti Defects by waternogetemeny: 6:31pm On Nov 11, 2014 |
Collynzo9: Must he go to the market square to shout that he will contest. General Ihejirika is a man of honour and if Abia fails to put him forward then T A Orji failure will be nothing compare to wat is ahead and Alaigbo would have lost our best leg for 2019. Please let us for once get this right |

waternogetemeny:I don't understand you, there are many other credible candidates running for the post and unlike Ihejirika, they have actually declared interest. I don't know why you think any person other than Ihejirika will be worse than T.A Orji. Can you tell me why? |

APGA must control the 5 SE states come 2015, including Enugu. |
Re: APGA To Control 3 Out Of 5 South East States As Alex Oti Defects by waternogetemeny: 6:57pm On Nov 11, 2014 |
asha80: Despite T. A Orji cronyism and installing family members as congress of primary committee, anything can happen between now and the primarY. The only obstacle ahead for Ihejirika is failure to consult GEJ and other PDP stakeholders. This is far beyond T.A. Orji. There are no sole candidate that am aware of in Abia and Ihejirika has no rush to make declaration, there is still time. This is politics |
