The leadership of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) is said to have embarked on the reversal and retrieval of some certificates of return given to wrong persons after the just concluded primary elections in Anambra.
This was made known by Owelle Godson Obi, a member of the State Working Committee of APGA in Anambra and Special Adviser to Governor Willie Obiano on Community Liaison, while speaking with newsmen at Awka on Monday.
He said the leadership of the party has taken cognizance of protests and agitations against the conduct of primary elections in their various localities.
He said that some of the issues were being addressed at the national headquarters of APGA in Abuja, adding that the certificates given in error to some people had been retrieved.
The former Orumba-South council chairman noted that the leadership of APGA had to embark on the retrieval of certificates of return issued inadvertently so that it would calm frayed nerves as well as seek amicable resolution of the grievances as the party does not intend to lose its members to other political parties on account of perceived grievances and agitations.
Obi said that the coast was clear for APGA to make inroads in 2019, describing the party as the only credible alternative for the entire nation to remedy the abysmal performance of the incumbent APC-led Federal Government.
This is even as he admonished the party’s leadership to be mindful of internal democracy and unity of purpose.
Obi also disclosed that Governor Willie Obiano, the leader of the party, in concert with the National Working Committee, was working assiduously to addressing issues arising from the conduct of the just concluded primary elections across the state so that both the losers and winners would see reasons to continue to remain in APGA and build the party.

He believed that the party’s leadership would not keep mute over issues arising from the conduct of the primary elections as leaders of the party were persons of impeccable characters whom he said have conscience and reputation to protect.
The governor’s aide also alluded to allegations of imposition of candidates, saying it was a calculated attempt to bring the leadership of APGA to disrepute.
He said APGA was doing well as a political party which was the remote reason people jostled for the party’s tickets.
