A highlight of the meeting was the reaffirmation by INEC Chairman, Professor Joash Ojo Amupitan, of the commission’s readiness to deliver one of Nigeria’s most transparent and technologically driven elections to date.

 His reassurance bolstered confidence among stakeholders that the electoral process will uphold integrity, fairness, and inclusivity.

Speaking on behalf of APGA, Barrister Sly Ezeokenwa conveyed the party’s preparedness to participate fully in the electoral process. He expressed optimism that voters in Anambra, inspired by the sterling performance and transformative leadership of Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, will once again demonstrate their trust in APGA.

 “Our party remains committed to progressive, people-centered governance, and we are confident that Ndi Anambra will renew their faith in us this election cycle,” he stated.

The APGA Chairman also took the opportunity to call on all political actors and contestants to uphold the values of peace, fairness, and respect for the rule of law.

 As the election approaches, he emphasized that a peaceful and transparent process is essential for sustaining Nigeria’s democratic development and for ensuring that the voice of the people prevails.

This engagement signifies a positive step toward a credible and peaceful election in Anambra State. With INEC’s commitment and APGA’s readiness, hopes are high that the November 8 poll will reflect the true will of Ndi Anambra, paving the way for continued progress and good governance in the state.
