Soludo Is Not Bigger Than APGA, We’ve Agree To Suspend Him – Nat’l Chairman

The National Working Committee (NWC) of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has announced its intention to suspend the Governor of Anambra State, Charles Soludo.

The party’s National Chairman, Edozie Njoku, made this known on Wednesday while fielding questions from newsmen at the Federal High Court in Abuja.

Speaking with journalists, Njoku alleged that Governor Soludo had thwarted every move by the Supreme Court-recognized NWC to restore peace in the party and has continued with his anti-party activities.

Edozie said by Thursday, September 26, 2024, the NWC would announce the names of members of the party who have been suspended for anti-party activities, including the Governor of Anambra State, Soludo.

Speaking further, he stated that the party has no sole candidate for the upcoming governorship election, doubting if Soludo could even emerge victorious from the party’s primaries.

He said that anyone interested in becoming the governor of Anambra State should come forward and go through the process which, according to him, would be seamless.

His statement read in part, “If you remember, just about a week ago or two weeks ago, we just left the Court of Appeal where a stay was applied at the Court of Appeal to stay me being recognized by INEC despite the fact that the Supreme Court said in their own words that the removal of Chief Edozie Njoku as national chairman of APGA is not justiciable.

“They went to Awka and filed the suit, suddenly the the judge in Awka was very smart, and he pulled out of it. They came to the Federal High Court again.

“They filed another one behind our back, they were applying for an interim injunction behind the back of the national chairman of the party, behind the back of APGA, and behind the back of the orders of the Court of Appeal, which asked that they should enforce the judgment as pay or affirm the enforcement of the judgment, as per the Buhari High Cour.

“They went forward behind the back of APGA and INEC were very smart, and INEC has written that everything they said is not true.

“If you notice, the whole NWC are here, and a group of people are being suspended from the party. As you know, I’ve been preaching peace, peace peace peace peace because it’s not in the interest of the party for us to start suspending elected officers, to start suspending a governor, to start suspending House of Assembly members, to start suspending the senator from Abia.

“They are pushing us far to the limit, and they are believing that the governor of Anambra State is bigger than the party. No one is bigger than the party, and so maybe they are playing on that I want peace, that I will not change, even the beauty.

“This is a political party, and APGA is here to stay. We have 80% agreed on those people who are going to be suspended from the party. One of those people is the governor.

“And I’m saying, are we going to just suspend the only Governor we have? But if the only Governor we have is pretending or playing to the gallery, making these people who are honest people go in and commit anti-party activities.”
