Chief of Staff to Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State, Chief Primus Odili, has called for the return of the former Governor of the state, Mr. Peter Obi to the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA).
He made the appeal for the vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2019 general elections to rejoin APGA, while fielding questions from newsmen last weekend, on the readiness of APGA to compete with other political parties. Odili asserted that when Obi was in APGA, he dreamt APGA, and he slept APGA because he was consumed by the spirit of the party which he said was akin to a movement.
“He made such statements like other parties are a bundle of criminals, we can never be a part of them, we can never associate with them, I will never do this with them and we can never do that with them. “He was consumed by the spirit of APGA and he did things the way an APGA man does things; perfect, solid structures in the ground, and people were happy with the government because he spoke APGA, and he breathed APGA.
“If you mention other parties to him, he will tell you in clear language that this particular party burnt down our state, we can never associate with them. This particular party killed us, we can never associate with them. This is where I must remain and if I leave this, if I quit APGA, I quit politics and the rest of that. “We are calling on him to come back because the Igbos want him. Come back so that he will breathe the life that flows from APGA and begin to work just the way he worked when he was the governor of Anambra State.
