As required by Section 32 of the Electoral Act. The official deadline for making the submission closed Friday (today) been 6th August 2021

Crimefacts.news gathered that the phase which is a statutory process that marks the close of the process of nomination of candidates has thrown the Soludo camp into disarray and seems to have buried the guber ambition which could not fly.

Majority of APGA chieftains and House of Assembly lawmakers who spoke described latest development as victory for APGA members who have stood with Umeoji and willing to sink and die for his ticket. 

A party source told Crimefacts.news that the member representing Ihiala Federal Constituency in the house of Representatives Ifeanyi Momoh, the Chief Whip of the State House of Assembly who led over 10 other lawmakers and the APGA State Auditor all welcomed the development and expressed the readiness of the APGA family and stakeholders to hit the ground running and bring landslide victory for Umeoji.

“The lawmakers appealed to His Excellency Governor Willie Obiano, Chief Victor Oye and Prof. Charles Soludo to as one family rally round Umeoji who holds the key to APGA victory to help develop on the agenda of APGA to keep doing more and expanding the good works of the Party.
