- Bianca Ojukwu has said that the party founded by her late husband, the All Progressive Grand Alliance will emerge victorious at the Anambra governorship election
- The late wife of the Biafra warlord said she was optimistic that the party would win because Charles Soludo is a strong candidate for governor in the state
- Bianca also blamed the woes of the party on the bad leadership and governance structure adopted by Governor Willie Obiano
The wife of late Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, Biafra warlord, has attacked the Anambra state governor, Willie Obiano over the misfortune and state of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA)
P.M News reports that Bianca Ojukwu while marking her husband's birthday posthumously blamed Governor Obiano for the dwindling political fortune of the party founded by her late husband.
In a statement released on Thursday, November 4, Ojukwu's birthday, Bianca said the bad leadership and governance structure showcased by Obiano has taken Anambra state backwards.
Bianca said APGA's victory at the November 6, governorship election in the state would not be for good performance by the governor but because of the people's resolve to bring to an end his eight years of bad leadership.

She said the consistent defection of party members from APGA to other parties across Nigeria can only be attributed to the governor's leadership style.
Bianca said:
“Curiously, they are almost all defecting to APC. Our party has lost almost half of our state and national legislators, several principal members of our Board of Trustees including the Secretary of the Board."
Warning that APGA is currently run like a secret cult, Bianca said the once vibrant party has been reduced to a shadow of its former self.
Also, expressing her optimism at Saturday's poll for the party, Bianca she was confident that APGA emerges victorious at the governorship election.
She said:
“The party has a good candidate in this guber election in the person of Prof. Charles Soludo and he has all it takes to chart a new course both in the trajectory of the party and of the state."
