Leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State have expressed their disapproval of the appointment of Bianca Ojukwu as a minister-designate, labeling it an action against the party’s interests.
They raised concerns regarding President Bola Tinubu’s choice to appoint Bianca, who is affiliated with the Board of Trustees of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), without prior consultation with APC members. During an urgent meeting of party stakeholders held in Awka on Thursday, October 24, the APC leaders characterized the appointment as a significant breach of party loyalty that threatens the morale of their constituents.
High Chief Bunty Onuigbo, the South East Zonal Secretary of APC and a member of the APC Elders Forum in Anambra, articulated the stakeholders’ sentiments, stating, “This is nothing but an act of anti-party, and it is detrimental. By empowering members of other political parties at the expense of the APC in Anambra State, Mr President is not supporting party loyalty,”
Onuigbo further probed the potential consequences of the appointment, questioning, “Does Mr President want a mass defection of APC members in Anambra to the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA)? Is he indirectly working for APGA in Anambra State?”
He conveyed that the situation is both “unheard of and highly demoralising,” expressing concern that the leadership in Abuja appears to be bolstering the prospects of rival parties to the detriment of the APC.
Among the seven ministers appointed on Wednesday, October 23, Bianca Ojukwu’s selection has generated the most discussion, with Nigerians engaging in extensive debates on various social media platforms regarding this presidential decision.
