The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has stated that neither it nor its candidate had any agreement with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) before last Saturday’s Magama/Rijau House of Representative bye-election.
The party also said its candidate, Alhaji Shehu Salle, is also not in agreement with anybody or political party to defect after his swearing-in.
APGA won the election when its candidate, Salleh, defeated the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Emmanuel Alamu Endoza, and that of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Alhaji Halilu Yussuf.
It was the first major election to be won by APGA in the state.

THE Anambra State chapter of All Progressives Congress, APC, Monday gave knocks to the state governor, Chief Willie Obiano, saying it was unfair for him to travel out of the state only to impose curfew on the people from the United States of America, USA.
But the state government described APC’s statement as misplaced, adding that the governor was away on a business trip beneficial to Anambra State.
Obiano had on Thursday last week, through the Secretary to the State Government, Professor Solo Chukwulobelu, imposed a curfew on the state from 9pm to 6am daily following the resurgence of COVID-19 cases in the state.
