A major political realignment is ongoing in Anambra West as a prominent business mogul and other influential figures prepare to join the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). The move, expected to be officially announced this week, further solidifies the growing confidence in Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo’s leadership. His massive infrastructural development, enhanced security, and overall performance in governance have continued to win the hearts of progressive minds, while leaving the opposition in disarray.
This development comes just days after Dr. (Sir) Kennedy Mmoya, a well-known political and business heavyweight, alongside many others, officially moved to APGA. Their decision was largely influenced by Soludo’s remarkable achievements in governance, particularly his strategic infrastructural investments, economic reforms, and improved security across the state. Mmoya openly declared that Soludo’s performance had set a new standard for leadership in Anambra, making APGA the only viable party for meaningful progress.
Governor Soludo, like no other, is touching every part of Anambra State with development, particularly long-neglected and underdeveloped communities. His administration has taken governance beyond the urban centers, bringing meaningful transformation to areas that had been cut off from mainstream development for years. In Anambra West, where poor road networks and infrastructural decay once crippled economic activities, Soludo has aggressively pushed forward road construction and bridge-building projects, linking previously isolated communities to the rest of the state. The Mmiata Anam-Nzam Road project and other strategic developments have opened up the local economy, providing farmers and traders with better access to markets and boosting commercial activities. This rapid infrastructural progress has made APGA the party of choice for many who seek sustainable development.
Security has also seen a remarkable improvement under Soludo’s administration. Anambra West, like many other parts of the state, once faced serious security challenges, ranging from banditry to communal clashes. However, with Soludo’s proactive security measures and the deployment of a community-based security network, peace has been largely restored. The business mogul set to join APGA is said to have been particularly impressed by the governor’s firm stance on security, recognizing that stability is crucial for business and investment.
As APGA gains more ground, opposition parties are in deep crisis. Many of their members, once skeptical of Soludo’s governance approach, are now struggling to find faults in his administration. With major infrastructural projects ongoing, security under control, and a clear vision for the economic future of Anambra, the opposition’s traditional tactics of criticism and propaganda have become ineffective. The move of a high-profile business figure into APGA further exposes the internal fractures within opposition parties, many of whom are battling relevance and credibility issues in the face of Soludo’s achievements.
Political observers believe that this wave of realignments is only the beginning. With Soludo’s administration continuously delivering on key promises, more business leaders, politicians, and influential figures are expected to move towards APGA. As the governor remains focused on his “Solution Agenda,” which prioritizes economic transformation, urban renewal, and grassroots development, APGA’s position as the dominant party in Anambra continues to strengthen.
The coming days will reveal more details about the impending moves, but one thing is clear—Soludo’s APGA is setting a new political standard in Anambra, making it increasingly difficult for the opposition to remain afloat.
