The All Progressive Grand Alliance in Abuja on Thursday began the revalidation of its existing membership and registration of new ones nationwide, pegging its membership card at N100.
The party also reacted to the outcome of the last general elections and made mockery of the Peoples Democratic Party, which boasted that it would rule Nigeria for 60 years.
The National Chairman of APGA, Dr. Victor Oye, said these during the party’s national retreat for members of its National Working Committee, six zonal and 36 state chairmen.
Oye said APGA, which is planning a tour of the states to assess its strength, had also commenced an aggressive membership campaign across the country in readiness for the forthcoming elections in Kogi and Bayelsa states.
The APGA chairman expressed optimism that APGA’s chances in the elections were very bright.
He said, “Our Bayelsa State chairman told me that he got a revelation from God that APGA would win the Bayelsa State governorship election.
“The PDP said they would rule for 60 years. That is why they are in crisis. When I told people that the PDP would fail in the last elections, they said it wouldn’t happen because of the incumbency factor.
“Our chances in the forthcoming governorship elections in Kogi, Bayelsa and Edo states are very bright because the APC and PDP are in disarray and in serious crises.
Oye said APGA would present a very formidable candidate for the Bayelsa governorship election.
The APGA chairman, however, said practical steps had been taken to reposition the party and build bridges across political, religious and ideological divides.Punch
