APGA Reaffirms Support For Jonathan’s Re-election Bid

The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), in Imo State, has declared its support for the reelection bid of President Goodluck Jonathan in the 2015 general elections.

This was revealed at a sensitisation rally organised by the leadership of the party at the Dan Anyiam stadium in Owerri the Imo state capital south east Nigeria. They said it could be recalled that in 2011, the present Governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha, was elected under the platform of APGA before he defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC), hence they are “not losing sleep until they reclaim the governorship seat in the state come 2015”.

The rally witnessed the presence of the leadership of the party from the national level as well as the State level.

The Imo state chairman of APGA, Peter Ezeobi said the party is re-strategising and gathering strength like never before ahead of the 2015 general elections.

Chieftains of the party took turns to address the crowd despite the heavy downpour.

Some chieftains of the party in Imo state noted that the success of the sensitisation rally proved that APGA remained the only recognised party in the south east, adding that the party was poised to reclaim the governorship in 2015.

The event did not end without receiving defecting members of other political parties.
