Tinubu’s appointments reflect inclusivity not partisan affiliation – APC Chieftain Chukwuma

• Dismisses APC-APGA alliance

From Aloysius Attah, Onitsha

Frontline Anambra governorship aspirant under the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Paul Chukwuma, has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for appointing competent Anambra people into positions in his administration, irrespective of party affiliations.

Chukwuma, who spoke in his country home, Umueri, Anambra State, on Saturday during an interaction with media personalities, also dismissed speculations of an alliance between the APC and the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), noting that recent appointments of individuals from Anambra State by President Tinubu reflect Mr President’s commitment to national unity, inclusivity, and not partisan favoritism.

He emphasized that the appointees are qualified Igbo and Anambra citizens, regardless of their political affiliations.

He highlighted Tinubu’s approach to governance as one that prioritizes inclusivity, describing him as a leader who shares political offices with Nigerians across party lines.

He also dismissed rumours of an APC-APGA alliance, reaffirming that the APC is focused on building grassroots support to win the governorship position in the 2025 elections.

According to Chukwuma, the party aims to win the state through the will of the people and not through coercion.

“The claims that the APGA government nominated such individuals appointed by Mr President are not true. Governor Soludo plays APGA in Anambra and plays APC in Abuja. Such a game of deceit cannot work because, in an election, it is a different ball game,” he said.

Chukwuma further commended party members for their dedication at the grassroots level, expressing confidence in APC’s prospects for victory in the upcoming governorship election in Anambra.
