The All Progressives Grand Alliance has slammed the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the November 8, 2025 Anambra governorship election, Nicholas Ukachukwu, over his claims that there is no alliance between President Bola Tinubu and Governor Chukwuma Soludo.
Recall that Tinubu was in Anambra on Thursday to commission some “legacy” projects built by Soludo, a move that has reportedly sent a signal of the President’s “alliance” and “endorsement” of the governor ahead of the governorship election.
Reports have also been making the rounds quoting the APC governorship candidate, Ukachukwu as claiming that “no alliance exists between Tinubu and Soludo on Anambra governorship election”.
The APC candidate attributed the claims to the Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma.
But reacting to the reports captioned, ‘No alliance exists between Tinubu and Soludo on Anambra governorship election – Hope Uzodimma’, in a statement on Monday, the National Coordinator, APGA Media Warriors Forum, Chinedu Obigwe, described the reports as the handiwork of a desperate group from a “drowning” political camp.
Obigwe said Tinubu’s visit exposed Ukachukwu as a total stranger in APC who hijack Anambra APC ticket.
The statement read, “The news report with the caption, ‘No alliance exists between Tinubu and Soludo on Anambra governorship election’ which was attributed to a sitting governor is the handiwork of the drowning political camp of Ukachukwu.
“The report claimed that the governor of Imo State issued the press release, but the governor did not issue the above referred press release. The person who wrote it was lured with money by the drowning political camp of Nicholas Ukachukwu to act as if he is speaking on behalf of the South-East Chairman of APC.
“As a matter of fact, no sitting governor in the region knows the APC candidate. We are saying this because of what played out during the visit of President Tinubu to Anambra.
“If not for the magnanimity and large heart of Governor Soludo, Ukachukwu would not have been allowed to even come near the visiting governors, ministers and President Tinubu.
“Funny enough, he utilised the opportunity granted to him by Governor Soludo to exchange greetings with APC governors and they were like, who are you?.
“He then introduced himself as APC governorship candidate in Anambra. Even with his introduction as APC governorship candidate, they still treated him like a stranger.
“That President Tinubu visit exposed Nicholas Ukachukwu as a total stranger in APC that used money to hijack Anambra APC ticket.
“As long as the forthcoming November 8 governorship election is concerned, the APC candidate is on his On his Own in the race.
“The core APC followers in Anambra are not with him. The general public should disregard the referred news report because it’s a fabricated tissue of lies that can only fly in the figment of the warped imagination of the drowning Nicholas Ukachukwu and his confused followers.
“Ukachukwu is floating in the murky waters of Anambra politics and he will continue floating until after the well deserved declaration of Governor Soludo as the winner of the November 8th governorship election.”
