The national leadership of All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, led by Chief Maxi Okwu has nominated the Deputy National Chairman (South), Chief  Chris Ejike Uche and Dr. Sagir Anwal Maidoyn, the National Secretary of the party to represent it at the forthcoming National CONFAB in Abuja.

Chief Maxi Okwu stated this at the Owerri residence of Chief Ralph Uwazuruike on Friday, February 21, 2014.

According to him, he had extended olive branch to Chief Chekwas Okorie and recovered the soul of APGA.  To ensure that the party regains its glory in the scheme of things in Nigeria.  He was however sad that his peace efforts and overtures were rebuffed by Chief Victor Umeh.

Chief Maxi Okwu lends support to President Goodluck Jonathan for his monumental achievements.  He was critical about the uncivilized conduct of opposition groups who tore the president’s posters and bill boards at SamMbakweInternationalCargoAirport recently.

He described that action as smack of intolerance, lack of decorum and brazen display of undemocratic conduct with reckless impunity, he said.  Chief Maxi Okwu further gave support to President Goodluck Jonathan for suspending the Central Bank Governor, Alhaji Sanusi Lamido Sanusi.

Chief Okwu promised to ensure that APGA reclaims its governorship mandate come 2015.

He further observed that APGA represents the true Igbo identity and should be allowed to speak for the Igbo race at the forthcoming national conference.  Chief Okwu noted that the declaration of Capt. Emmanuel Iheanacho for APGA is a welcome development as their door is wide open for all.

It is remarkable that Chief Chris UChe Ejike, the Deputy National Chairman (South) has been appointed as the leader of APGA in ImoState.  The leadership of APGA in ImoState include Chief Chris Ejike Uche, Simeon Udunka, High Chief Uche Njoku, Prof. Francis Dike, Chief Opara Udochi, Greg Emeribe and Christian Achonu.

A letter from the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, signed by Chief Pius Anyim urged Chief Maxi Okwu to formally forward the names of two representatives of APGA for the National Conference was shown to our reporter.
