Sen. Victor Umeh, former National Chairman, All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), has expressed optimism that the party would secure all the legislative seats in the 2023 general elections. Umeh made the statement at a consultative forum of APGA stakeholders in Awka North Local Government Area (LGA), on Wednesday.
He said that winning the legislative seats at the national and state levels in the 2023 general elections would enthrone a more peaceful political atmosphere in the state.
According to him, such atmosphere will help the governor-elect, Prof. Charles Soludo, perform better for the progress of the state.
“I’m optimistic that APGA will win all the legislative seats come 2023. This will enthrone synergy between all the arms of government and make the state government function smoothly and adequately. It will also promote common interest which is key to sustainable growth and development of any society. So, we are urging our people to continue to support our great party,” he said.
The ex-national chairman said he would decide whether to vie for the Anambra Central Senatorial seat in the 2023 general elections after due consultation with his constituency.
“This forum became necessary because there have been clarion calls by different individuals, political and nonpolitical groups, that I should run for senate once again to represent Anambra central senatorial district. I will make my decision after consulting with the seven local government areas under Anambra central,” he said.
