The All Progressives Grand Alliance has stated that it will not support Mr. Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, in the general elections in 2023.
After a secret meeting between Anambra State Governor Prof. Chukwuma Soludo and members of APGA, extensive rumours circulated that Soludo had instructed the party faithful to work against Peter Obi, alleging that the governor aspired to the presidency after Atiku Abubakar.

However, while speaking to media in Awka on Thursday, Mr. Chinedu Obigwe, National Coordinator of the APGA Media Warriors Forum, emphasised that the party will work against Obi in favour of APGA candidates.
Obigwe stated that it is in the best interest of APGA supporters to oppose Obi and support APGA candidates.
He stated that APGA remained dedicated to supporting all of its candidates in the elections.
He stated that anyone who expects APGA to support the former Anambra State governor in the 2023 election is “living in self-deception and a fool’s paradise.”

“Such thing will not work because no sane person will take the fish in his or her boat to the boat of a political enemy.
“I don’t know how to paint words or to be economical with the truth hence my reason for maintaining my stand that Peter Obi’s ill–conceived presidential ambition is dead on arrival.”
“Governor Chukwuma Soludo does not need to tell APGA faithful to work against Peter Obi because they already know that it is the right thing for them to do in the interest of our party, APGA.

“The evil plot of Obi for APGA candidates to suffer bandwagon effect in this 2023 general election will fail.
“It will die a natural death because APGA faithful are committed to working in favour of all APGA candidates in this 2023 general election,” Obigwe added.
