The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has labelled Peter Obi the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) as a “political enemy”.
After a private meeting between the Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, and members of APGA, there were widespread rumours that he ordered the party faithful to work against Obi.
But Soludo, speaking through his Press Secretary, Christian Aburime, moved to deny the widespread speculation.
However, while addressing reporters in Awka on Thursday, the National Coordinator, APGA Media Warriors Forum, Chinedu Obigwe, insisted that they will work against Obi.
Obigwe made it clear that APGA has remained committed to working in favour of all its candidates in the elections.
“I hate being sentimental on important issues and like saying the raw truth without minding whose ox is gored.
“Our self-acclaimed Saint Peter Obi as the Labour Party presidential candidate has nothing in common with APGA as a party and APGA faithful, because he is now a political enemy.
“Labour Party members will work against APGA candidates in the forthcoming general election and it is also expected of APGA faithful to work against Peter Obi and other Labour Party candidates in the election,” Obigwe said.
He added that “Governor Chukwuma Soludo does not need to tell APGA faithful to work against Peter Obi because they already know that it is the right thing for them to do in the interest of our party, APGA.”
