APGA-Southwest Declares Unflinching Support for National Chairman, Bar. Sly Ezeokenwa (Jr) and his NWC Members

 

APGA-SOUTHWEST DECLARES UNFLINCHING SUPPORT FOR NATIONAL CHAIRMAN, BAR. SLY EZEOKENWA (JR) AND HIS NWC MEMBERS

 

The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the Southwest zone, under the leadership of the National Vice Chairman, Southwest, Alhaji Owolabi Suraj Olanrewaju, along with the State Chairmen and the general membership of the party, unequivocally reaffirms its steadfast support for our young and dynamic National Chairman, Bar. Sly Ezeokenwa (Jr). His emergence, alongside other members of the National Working Committee (NWC), from the National Convention conducted by Ozonkpu Dr. Victor Oye, and witnessed by INEC officials on May 31st, 2023, at the International Conference Centre, Awka, Anambra State, stands as a testimony to the legitimacy of their leadership.

 

Our unwavering loyalty to the leadership of APGA under Bar. Sly Ezeokenwa (Jr) is rooted in our collective belief in his vision and capability to steer the party toward greater heights. His youthfulness and vibrancy bring a renewed sense of purpose and direction, which is essential for the continued progress of our great party. We also reaffirm our recognition of the current Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo, as our party's National Leader, whose influence and guidance are invaluable to our mission.

 

We wish to categorically warn those who are parading themselves as new National APGA Executive members to desist from their reckless and baseless claims. APGA is a party that adheres strictly to its constitutional provisions, where party officials at the National, State, Local Government, and Ward levels emerge through legitimate Congress and Convention processes. The party does not issue letters of appointment to its officials; rather, they are elected through a transparent and democratic process.

 

There has been no court order that has nullified the election of Bar. Sly Ezeokenwa (Jr) and his National Working Committee members. Therefore, any claims to the contrary are nothing more than the desperate antics of political jobbers and impostors who seek to undermine the integrity of our party through illegitimate means.

 

The public is hereby notified to be vigilant against the activities of these impostors. These unscrupulous individuals, who are attempting to wrest power through crooked and illegitimate channels, are not recognized by the legitimate organs of our party. We appeal to all our genuine members, both at home and in the diaspora, to remain united and resolute in support of our duly elected leadership.

 

We are closely monitoring the actions of these impostors, who are scavenging for what they can unlawfully seize. Let it be known that the long arm of the law will soon catch up with them, and they will be held accountable for their actions. APGA remains committed to upholding the rule of law, and we will not tolerate any attempt to destabilize our party.

 

The Southwest zone of APGA, under the leadership of Alhaji Owolabi Suraj Olanrewaju, and with the support of key NWC members, including Pastor Olatunji Popoola (National Auditor) and Mr. Rufus Alabi Jegede (National Deputy Organizing Secretary), is fully aligned with the vision and direction of the National Chairman, Bar. Sly Ezeokenwa (Jr). Together, we will continue to work tirelessly to strengthen APGA and ensure its success in future elections.

 

In conclusion, we reiterate our unflinching support for Bar. Sly Ezeokenwa (Jr) and his NWC members. We stand firm in our commitment to the principles of democracy and the rule of law, which are the bedrock of our great party. APGA is a party of the people, and we will not allow a few misguided individuals to derail our collective aspirations.

 

We call on all members of APGA in the Southwest and beyond to rally behind our National Chairman and his team. Together, we will build a stronger, more united, and prosperous APGA that will continue to serve the interests of the Nigerian people.

 

Signed:

Alhaji Owolabi Suraj Olanrewaju

National Vice Chairman, Southwest
