The APC aims to gain control of the southeastern states in order to address the issue of Igbo marginalization, according to the National Chairman of the APC, Ganduje.
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Ganduje, remarked on Thursday that the perceived marginalization of the Igbo people might stem from the fact that the five states in the South-East are under the governance of different political parties instead of being united under a single party.
He expressed that the ruling APC is committed to securing a majority of the South-East states, with Anambra as the initial target, currently under the governance of the All Progressive Grand Alliance.
He “The North, South-East political zones are all claiming that they have been marginalised. The South-East geopolitical zone is saying the same thing. But what we are telling them is that the marginalization has been created by them.
“How can you have five states ruled by four political parties? What will be your political bargain?”
“Next year, there will be Anambra, which has been a state governed by APGA for many years, but we have introduced a new scheme. We want to start with Anambra. Already, we have Ebonyi and Imo. Now, we are encroaching into that zone to ensure that we capture most of the states. And if we get what we want, we capture all the states,”
