ASHENEWS reports that the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje has assured that his party will dominate the Southeast region of the country.
Addressing newsmen on Wednesday, Ganduje also expressed conviction that the APC will win the next governorship, and National Assemblies elections in Anambra state.
According to him, President Bola Tinubu had approved a viable blueprint on how the ruling party could ‘liberate’ the people of the region politically.
He stated these after his closed-door meeting with Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State, his counterpart in Nasarawa, Abdullahi Sule; Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni; Deputy Senate President, Jibrin Barau and two former Anambra governorship candidates, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah and Uche Ekwunife at the party national headquarters in Abuja.
Until their defections to the APC, Ubah was the governorship candidate of the Young Progressive Party, while Ekwunife was his rival from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party in Anambra.
A former Anambra South Senator and chieftain of the party, Andy Uba, was also part of the delegation.
Ganduje said, “The calibre of people that are here today from Anambra, and not only from Anambra State but the South-East geopolitical zone, made me happy.
“I am so happy that they are here in the name of the APC. I would like to let you know that Mr President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved our blueprint for the political liberation of South East to the APC. He has approved the political emancipation, intervention and de-marginalisation of the South-East.
“Be with one voice because if you speak with one voice, your voice will be louder. We need you to be united.
“So you can see that Anambra APC will win next governorship, National Assembly, State Assembly and other grassroots elections. What we are simply telling you is that the South-East zone is coming into the national politics and the region will be dominated by the APC. That is why they are here today.”
