The National Chairman, of All Progressives Congress (APC) Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has said that based on the unfolding political scenario, the APC would reclaim Edo state, during the forthcoming election slated for September 21st 2024
This was just as Ganduje added that his party would win Ondo state and capture Anambra state during the forthcoming governorship election at the stipulated time slated for elections
According to him,” Let’s start with Edo which is coming on the 21st of September. Well I believe our campaign is with high spirit, we are getting ready for that election and we believe we will be able to recover our state because it was an APC state but because of Internal bubbles we lost it to PDP but we are sure we will recover that state”.
He however added that” For Ondo state, it’s already an APC state and the former governor when he died with a number of problems we were able to resolve those issues. We conducted primaries, we succeeded in getting the person that they want.”
He then disclosed ” We are also getting ready for that election which is coming up in November.
Ganduje who was a former Kano state governor however disclosed this while speaking with members of Kano state correspondent Chapel of the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) in his office stated that “ If we
Win Edo we will be getting an additional state for the party. It will be 21 states out of 36”
Ganduje further disclosed that “Next year there will be Anambra which has been a state governed by APGA for many years but we have introduced a new scheme.
He hinted that ‘The south east political zone are all claiming that they have been marginalised. The southeast geopolitical zone. But what we are telling them is that those marginalisation have been created by them.
The APC national chairman, therefore stated what we are telling them to know is that ‘ How
Can you have five states and ruled by four political parties. What will be your political bargain?
He therefore disclosed that ,” So, we have introduced a new phenomenon which we call the political marginalisation of the southeast geopolitical zone where we are working very hard to ensure that we get more states from that zone and we want to start with Anambra.
Already we have Ebonyi, Imo states, now we are encroaching into that zone to ensure that we capture most of the states. And if we get what we want we capture all the states., Ganduje said.
