2015: APGA offers Jonathan, Umeh Automatic Tickets

Ahead of the 2015 general elections, the All Progressives Grand
Alliance has offered automatic tickets to President Goodluck Jonathan
and Chief Victor Umeh.

Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State disclosed this on Saturday in
Awka where a mega-rally was to urge Jonathan to seek re-election as
President.

Obiano however said the party's candidates for all other elective
positions will be determined through primaries.

While Jonathan has the party's presidential ticket, Umeh, APGA's
national chairman, will fly the party's banner in the Anambra Central
Senatorial election.

Umeh said APGA has gone into an accord with the Peoples Democratic
Party to support Jonathan for the presidential election.

Former Anambra State Governor, Mr. Peter Obi, was absent at the rally.
But Obiano said Obi got permission to travel to the United States to
attend the World Igbo Congress.

Former Senate President Ken Nnamani and former PDP national women's
leader, Mrs. Josephine Anenih, presented solidarity messages at the
rally.
