Stanley Okeke, a former house of representatives hopeful, has defected from the Young Progressive Party (YPP) to the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
In a statement issued on Friday, Okeke said he joined APGA because the administration of Charles Soludo has made strides in infrastructure, security, and “strategic” governance.
“The governor has also decisively reduced insecurity in Anambra, making it possible for people to return safely to their communities,” he said.
“With the massive infrastructural transformation ongoing, Anambra is fast becoming the destination point Soludo envisioned in 2021 – and I can’t help but support him to continue his good work.”

The politician, better known as Ugbo, denied joining the ruling party in the state due to his 2027 political ambition.
“My focus now is to ensure that the governor is voted for massively across my constituency and beyond. That is my motivation for now,” he said.
”The 2027 general election is still far off. What matters most is ensuring Soludo’s re-election.”
