APGA Dismisses Reports of Structure Collapse into ADC in Abia

The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Abia State has refuted reports claiming that its Abia South senatorial zone structures have collapsed into the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

In a statement issued by the State Publicity Secretary, Chukwuemeka Nwokoro, the party described the reports as false, misleading, and intended to create confusion.

APGA reaffirmed its readiness to contest and take over the Abia State Government House in 2027, stressing that it continues to enjoy peace and stability across all 17 local government areas of the state.

The party clarified that Charles Nwanyanwu, mentioned in some of the reports, is not a member of APGA. According to records from Ward 6 in Aba South, he resigned from the party in 2020 and has not been readmitted since.

APGA further emphasised that its leadership in the state remains intact under Ambassador Sunday Onukwubiri as State Chairman, with no leadership crisis at the council or ward level.

Highlighting its political strength, the party pointed to the election of Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe (Abia South) and Hon. Alex Ikwechegh (Aba North/South Federal Constituency) as evidence of its influence and relevance in the state.

It added that its Abia South structure, led by Chief Lucky Erondu, remains strong, with local government chairmen working cohesively to advance the party’s ideals.

APGA, therefore, urged the people of Abia and the general public to disregard rumours of defection, assuring that it remains committed to consolidating its base and preparing for victory in 2027.

“Without any fear of contradiction, APGA wishes to state clearly that the party in Abia State remains intact, strong, and formidable. All APGA structures across the three senatorial zones are fully functional,” the statement read.
