Obiogbolu Advocates for Democracy in APGA Primaries

Dr. Alex Obiogbolu, a candidate for the Anambra North senatorial ticket under the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), has stressed the necessity of strengthening democracy through party integrity. He highlighted the importance of political party discipline and internal democracy as foundational elements for a robust democratic culture in Nigeria.

Obiogbolu expressed disappointment regarding the conduct of the APGA primaries held on May 23, 2026, which he felt did not meet expectations for a credible electoral process. He noted that the manipulation of internal electoral processes undermines public confidence in democratic institutions.

Despite these challenges, Obiogbolu remains committed to participating in the political process and hopes that APGA leadership will seize the opportunity to reinforce confidence in the party's commitment to fair and transparent internal democracy. He has been involved with APGA for four years, believing in the need to build a stronger democratic party based on discipline and respect for established guidelines.
