The governor-elect of Anambra state, Chukwuma Soludo, has pledged that the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) is “going to work very hard” to drive the party’s popularity in other parts of the country.
Soludo spoke in a chat with Arise TV on Wednesday.
The former CBN governor was, on Tuesday, announced the winner of the Anambra governorship election.
He polled 112,229 votes on the platform APGA to defeat his two major rivals — Valentine Ozigbo of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who got 53,807 votes, and Andy Uba of the All Progressives Congress (APC) who secured 43,285 votes.
However, APGA, having ruled Anambra for 15 consecutive years, has not been able to establish a foothold in other parts of the country.
Speaking on this, Soludo said the party should not be categorised as a regional party, adding that it will soon spread across that country.
He said APGA will “mainstream our neo-progressivism” and get Nigerians to buy into the ideas of the party and “begin to flood into the party”.
He said APGA will leverage on its bases in some parts of the country to build a “systematic approach to getting the rest of the country”….
