The Anambra State Governor, Willie
Obiano, on Friday said there was no truth in the rumors that he will leave the
All Progressives Grand Alliance for the All Progressives Congress.
He said he would never leave the
party on which platform he contested and won governorship seat two times.
Obiano spoke to State
House correspondents after a meeting he had with President Muhammadu Buhari at
the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
“No. Never. That is
totally unfounded. I will never leave APGA. I’m the leader and the BoT chairman
of APGA and again by God’s grace the governor and governor-elect,” he declared.
The governor
described APGA as a very strong party in the South East, saying Nigerians will
see more proofs in coming elections.
When asked about his
relationship with his predecessor, Peter Obi, he said he had no problem with
anybody.
When also asked if he
will woo the son of Chief Emeka Ojukwu who left the party back into the fold,
Obiano said, “He is of no consequence, I am sorry to say.”
He, however, said he
had extended olive branch to his co-contestants, saying that all of them have
congratulated him.
He said individuals’
ambitions could not be greater that the interest of the state.
