"APGA" Is Not Just A Political Party, It's A Pan-igbo Legacy And A Movement ~ by Agba Esther Makuochukwu

The APGA slogan 'nke a bụ nke anyị' is not just a saying, but a consolation in the fact that we, Ndigbo have that which we'd all fall back to at the end of the day - home.

APGA is not just a political party, it's a pan-Igbo legacy and a movement which should be supported by any well-meaning Igbo son or daughter. APGA is the Igbo narrative in the larger Nigerian political space.

During the era of Obasanjo's presidency, Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) was controlling Lagos.

Tinubu was the governor and the idea wasn't to join the PDP because she controlled more states, but to be identifiable to what was theirs.
Have  you ever wondered how 
Lagos state at that time, weathered the storm of months without federal allocation when the internally generated revenue was yet to assume a high level. That didn't bother him a bit.

How did he wrestle back the same zone from the stronghold of the same PDP in 2007 and went on to strengthen his hold on the  politically sophisticated zone by 2011? And to summarize all the  battles won, how did the ACN merge with other progressive parties in the mold of CPC and ANPP, both from the Northern fold, now giving the PDP sleepless nights?

These and many more questions has remained a sort of magic to political writers and social observers.

Just like  Willie Obiano of APGA is in the eye of the storm today, a lot of lessons is to be learnt from Tinubu of yesteryears.

So, When they tell you to connect to the national power grid, tell them the story of Bola Tinubu. Lagos did it with Tinubu, Anambra can do it with Willie Obiano.

Umunne m, a vote for APGA in the forthcoming election is a vote that wouldn't go to waste. It remains a vote that would keep APGA from extinction, a vote of confidence on the igbo nation when we've clearly been looked over and neglected.

A vote for  APGA will be a vote for our own bargaining chip among political parties and states in Nigeria.

The igbo brotherhood  is nonnegotiable  and every well meaning igbo patriot  has begun to come home to this truth.

AFA IGBO AMA EFU
