The national chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, Mr Edozie Njoku, Sunday, called on some alleged detractors of Gov Charles Soludo of Anambra State to rally round him to ensure the success of his administration.
Edozie also pledged to unite APGA and reconcile aggrieved members. He stated this when he visited HRH Igwe Onyekachi Ukpabi in
Aboh Mbaise Council Area of Imo State.
Edozie, in a statement on Sunday, canvassed that Soludo be allowed to focus on governance for Anambra people.
He stated that, “The party can only progress when members are united. We call on aggrieved members to put aside their differences and unite to strengthen the party to enable it achieve its common goals. My leadership will be marked by the principles of internal democracy, equity, fairness and the rule of law.
“We call on all national, state and local government officials of the party to take the privilege of leadership seriously and abide by the laws and guiding principles laid by the founder of the party, Chief Chekwas Okorie. APGA is a national party, not a regional party and the leadership of this great party is a divine privilege.
“As party members, we cannot continue fighting, and this is why I am extending the olive branch to our aggrieved members for united we stand. APGA should not be fighting APGA. All the elected officers should wake up for reconciliation, so as to move APGA forward.
“Under my watch, we are going to work towards making life for our people better. We want to make APGA a political party that is organised and responsible to the society for it is a national party.”
He said allowing Soludo to concentrate on his work was the way forward for APGA, adding, “Don’t be bothering Prof Charles Soludo with political bickerings. Allow him to concentrate. In as much as I cannot stop him from being the governor, it is my humble plea that he be allowed to focus. We are for peace and believe you me, APGA will be run well under my watch.”
