From Idu Jude, Abuja
National Leader of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and the Governor of Anambra State, Professor Charles Soludo, has told members of the National Executive Council NEC of the party, to end the Supreme Court victory celebration and get down to work at their various states and localities.
Soludo made the call on Friday in Abuja while attending the National Executive Council Meeting (NEC) to mark the end of the 2024 Fiscal Year.
Speaking on behalf of the party, Soludo extended hands of fellowship to all Nigerians to join the APGA as the most progressive party in Nigeria for the time being.
He said: “We want to unite all aggrieved members of the party for progress and the new Nigeria we all desire. I want to tell you that the Supreme Court victory is over and remains a call for unity.”
He expressed happiness over the appointment of Ambassador Mrs Bianca Ojukwu, as a member of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s cabinet.
“Under this administration, a member of our party is appointed a Minister, and the President moves outside APC. We shall grow from strength to strength because APGA is built to last,” he said.
Regarding his administration in Anambra State, Soludo noted that his administration had decided to leave behind a legacy that future leaders have to work with, adding that the free education policy as well as other infrastructural developments, are promises kept to walk the talk.
National Chairman of the party, Barrister Sly Ezeokenwa, while welcoming delegates from different parts of the country, said he a brighter future beckons on the party after the years of struggle for existence and protracted Court judgement that ended at the Supreme Court recently.
While chronicling the travail of APGA, the dream of the founding fathers and political voice representing the entire region of South East, the former legal adviser to the party detailed that the party, irrespective of its recent squabbles, orchestrated by political merchants, hah grown from a regional political party to a national party.
He expressed optimism that the dream of the founding fathers would remain sacrosanct, and acknowledged that Governor had remained an asset throughout the party’s legal struggles.
