The National Chairman of the All-Progressives Congress (APC) has declared that his party will deploy the same template that earned them victory in Edo states through upcoming elections in Ondo, Anambra and other South-Eastern states. Ganduje made the boast while celebrating the party’s win on Saturday, in the Edo State Governorship race.
Ganduje said a big party like the APC ought to have been fully in charge of the South East geo-political zone, and urged party leaders at all levels to work hard towards actualising the party’s objectives.
“We have started working to develop strategies to win these states. Next year, Anambra state will follow. Let me remind you that we have a project which we named political demarginalisation of South East geo-political zone.
“That project is also a task that must be done. We will face Southeast zone with 5 states. We already have 2, but 2 is too small for a big party like ours. We will face that state and see how we can recover many states in our favour,” Ganduje said.
Meanwhile, some elders of the APC from the North Central led by a former Senate President, Ameh Ebute, have expressed optimism that the 2027 general election would be a walkover for the party.
Ebute said, “We feel we should be the first to come and congratulate you on your winning of the Edo governorship election for the party; for adding Edo to states controlled by the APC. We have no doubt in your ability to lead this party to a higher level.
“We are happy that the suit seeking your sack as national chairman was struck out. We are solidly behind you, and we shall continue to support you to take the party to the next level. With these achievements, we believe 2027 will be a walk over.”
