The National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Saturday promised to provide the necessary support for the party to wrest power from the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in this year’s governorship election in Anambra State.
The APC National Chairman, Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje, stated this while addressing the party stakeholders, including governorship aspirants, members and pro-groups in Awka.
He also inaugurated the party’s new secretariat complex in Awka.
Ganduje said: “We have to take you back to the good old days when the South-East was in the centre of Nigerian politics.
“We assure you that the national headquarters of our party, in collaboration with the government of the day, is ready to provide all the necessary logistics arrangements and strategies, to ensure that we install the government of APC in Anambra.
“We thank you because we have seen the vigour, commitment and intention to work towards winning the November 8 governorship election.”
The former Kano State governor said a situation where four political parties were controlling the five states in the South-East was unacceptable.
The chairman added: “Therefore, there is the need for the people of the South-East to connect to the national ruling party.
“I assure you that we must connect you to the centre.”
He also said that Igbo people are found in every part of the country doing business, adding that by their businesses, they are already nationalistic.
According to him, the APC national secretariat will work with the Presidency to bring the South-East to the mainstream of national politics.
He also assured the people of the state that positive efforts were being made by the Federal Government to stabilise the economy and ensure guaranteed security of lives and property of the citizenry.
