Anambra Guber: APGA Rejected the Idea of Double Candidature

In an interview on September 6, 2013, Friday, Mr. Kwentoh said that presenting two candidates would confuse the electorate and affect the party’s chance of retaining the leadership of the state.

The Chairman also commented with regret on the activities of Maxi Okwu’s faction whom he said participated in the reconciliation by Governor Peter Obi in the full glare of the public.

He described those who wanted to divide the party after the reconciliation as dissidents.

“We do not welcome

“Those trying to divide our party are dissidents and I call their actions rascality of the highest order”, Mr. Kwentoh said.

It would be recalled that Okwu-led faction of APGA on September 2, 2013, Monday chose Chike Obidigbo as its gubernatorial candidate.

However, in primaries conducted in Awka on August 26, 2013, Victor Umeh’s faction had elected Willie Obiano as the APGA candidate for the election.
