As reported by The Punch, Ganduje stated this while speaking at the APC South-East Colloquium taking place in Nnewi, Anambra state, on Friday, March 22.

He said that is the missing link and it is not benefiting Anambra state because the state has failed to transit and it is trapped.

According to The Nation, Ifeanyi Ubah and the APC are staging the events to sensitise party members, residents of Anambra South and Igbo with a lecture on ‘De-Marginalisation of the Southeast and Integration to National Politics’

The former Kano governor said that’s the reason former governors quickly abandoned APGA after they had governed the state.

“Even those who governed Anambra State quickly abandoned the party after they have governed the state, this is the height of selfishness.”

No more intimidation, Anambra is strategic to the Nigerian economy and it must connect to the centre.”
