Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Soludo has stated that zoning of the governor’s seat among the state’s three senatorial districts has been officially institutionalised and should be upheld in future elections.

The governor made this declaration during an endorsement rally for his candidacy and the Homecoming event for Hon. Ifeanyi Ibezi, who recently joined the All-Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), held in Abatete.

Soludo explained that the Southern senatorial zone, which he represents, currently holds the Governor’s position after the Northern district maintained power for eight years. Following this term, the Central Senatorial district will have the opportunity to govern for the next eight years.

Welcoming Hon. Ibezi back to APGA, Governor Soludo emphasised, “APGA serves as the umbrella for all progressives in Anambra. In fact, Anambra is synonymous with APGA, and APGA is synonymous with Anambra.”

He noted that his campaign has evolved into a grassroots movement, with communities actively taking ownership by organising endorsement rallies at their own expense. “We are going round the state welcoming major people back into the fold. APGA has never been more united and stronger than it is today”, the Governor added.
