One thousand three hundred former members of the People’s Democratic Party in Anambra have collapsed their structure into the All-Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA

 

A ceremony was performed at the Professor Dora Akunyili Women’s Development, Awka, to induct the new members.

Governor Soludo who described the day as big in the history of APGA, expressed happiness that PDP in Anambra has woken up and discovered the way, joining the APGA movement that will take them to the promised land.

The Governor noted that being a mass movement, every member of APGA is equal and recalled that electronic re-registration of APGA members is ongoing, asking them to take advantage of the opportunity.

He enjoined the new entrants to join hands with his government to build the party as a vehicle for transformation and expressed commitment to using the vehicle to enhance development.

Governor Soludo added that the reinvigorated APGA is deliberate about building human capital in a sustainable way, citing the free education policy, free antenatal care and delivery services, distribution of palm and coconut seedlings, among others, pledging to do more, stressing that APGA is the only platform through which real development will be taken to the people, especially the poor and down-trodden.

Earlier, the State Chairman of APGA, Barrister Ifeatu Obiokoye commended the Governor for leading the initiative, having created the enabling atmosphere, explaining that it is in tandem with the vision of the party leadership in Anambra state.

Speaking to the ABS, one of the escapees Right Honourable Emeka Anyaenetu said that Governor Soludo’s people-oriented policies informed their decision to join the APGA movement, to help Governor Soludo continue and complete his agenda for Ndị Anambra.
