Obiano To Contest Against Buhari In 2019 – APGA

The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has revealed it may field Governor Willie Obiano against President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2019 presidential election.

APGA, which described Governor Obiano as one of its “best for the 2019 presidential race,” expressed confidence in the re-elected Anambra State governor’s ability to unseat President Buhari in 2019.

This was according to the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Ifeatu Obi-Okoye, who made the statement in Awka, the state capital.

“We have not zoned our presidential candidate to any part of the country. But since APGA is seen as a political party with Igbo interest, it’s natural that we may look for a presidential candidate within.

“His Excellency, the executive governor of Anambra has distinguished himself as a great party man with great achievements, so, he is one of our best for the 2019 presidential race. But one thing is clear, we must field a presidential candidate in 2019. We won’t make the mistake of the past,” Obi-Okoye said.
