I Wont Back Down, Apc Must Fix Anambra Primary Fraud Ozigbo

Valentine Ozigbo, a frontline aspirant in the All Progressives Congress APC gubernatorial primary in Anambra State, has rejected the outcome of the April 5, 2025, exercise, describing it as a well-orchestrated heist and a charade that undermines democratic values.

In a passionate public statement, Ozigbo revealed he has submitted a formal petition to the APC Appeals Committee, citing widespread irregularities during the conduct of the primary.

The facts are now public: non-party members populated the delegate list genuine party faithful were locked out or violently barred from voting accreditation was either skipped or manipulated and votes were counted without transparency, he said.

Ozigbo maintained that his rejection of the results was not rooted in personal ambition but in the defence of democratic ideals. This is not just about me. It is about the soul of our democracy. About the values we claim to represent. About the future we owe our children.

Despite the setback, he reaffirmed his commitment to the APC and to his mission of serving Ndi Anambra. I will not be distracted. I will not run to the Senate, nor will I pivot to another political opportunity for the sake of ambition. I will stand firm, here, in the APC, and I will fight this good fight to its just end. Because Ndi Anambra are worth it. Because our democracy is worth it.
