Anambra 2021 No Factions In APGA, Says INEC

…We Didn’t Disqualify Party From Nov Election

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said
there are no factions in the All Progressives Grand Alliance
(APGA), implying that it has recognized the primary election that
produced the former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN),
Charles Chukwuma Soludo as a candidate.

The Commission also dismissed reports that it disqualified the
party from participating in the November 6 Anambra State
governorship election.

The Chief Jude Okeke-led National Working Committee of the party
suspended Soludo.

But the Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, Rotimi
Oyekanmi, in a telephone chat with The Nation, clarified that “the
Commission does not have any position on APGA. As far as INEC is
concerned, there are no factions in APGA. The Commission deals with
only one National Chairman and one Secretary of the party. Their
details are on the INEC website.

“Secondly, the Commission did not and has not said that APGA
will not participate in the Anambra Governorship election.”
