The governor noted that being a mass movement, every member of APGA is equal, he asked them to take advantage of the ongoing electronic re-registration of APGA members.
Gov Soludo appealed to the new entrants to join hands with his government to build the party as a vehicle for transformation and expressed commitment to using the vehicle to enhance development.
The Anambra State number one man added that the reinvigorated APGA is deliberate about building human capital in a sustainable way, citing the free education policy, free antenatal care and delivery services for women, distribution of palm and count seedlings, among others as clear examples.
The former Executive Chairman of Nnewi North LGA, Dr Amobi Chikwendu who is one of the decampes noted that Gov Soludo’s people-oriented policies informed their decision to join APGA movement so as to help continue and complete his SOLUTION agenda.
