The Anambra State Governor Chief Willie Obiano has debunked rumours of his defection from the All Progressives Grand Alliance APGA to another political party.
The Governor has also reaffirmed his position to seek re-election on the platform of APGA in the 2017 governorship election in the state.

The statement says Governor Obiano has no intention of dumping the party which has brought so much dividends of democracy to Anambra people.
According to the statement, the rumour that Chief Obiano is in talks with another political party with a view to jump ship is a wishful thinking of the rumour mongers and at best a calculated attempt by the opposition to cause disaffection and confusion amongst the Governor’s teeming supporters.

He says the fruits of the APGA platform is there for everyone to see and he would continue to champion the APGA cause just as his re-election bid gathers momentum.
The statement says Governor Obiano does not need to dump APGA or join another political party to win re-election as his giants developmental strides and gigantic footprints are there for all to see.
According to the statement, as a consummate banker of repute and a principled professional of many years standing, he is not known to be an ideological flirt and would not learn bad manners now as a fully grown political personality.
The Governor, it says sticks to his long held ideologies and would never succumb to the shenanigans of political flirtations.
He has gone further to make a call to all Igbos, even beyond Anambra state to sustain their support for APGA as it remains the best political machinery to achieve their collective dreams and aspirations.
Governor Obiano has also affirmed his resolve to ensure that APGA wins more states to brighten its chances of contributing more to the Igbo cause and to national development.
