Chukwuma Soludo to fulfil his promise to pay a disengagement allowance to all my political appointees, a promise he made to them in Aguleri at the point of his departure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dIf you cannot re-engage them, you can at least pay their outstanding allowances. This will be a more fitting way to end their glorious tenure as well reward them for ensuring your victory (at) polls.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in the release, Obiano said that rumours about his plan to leave the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, were untrue.<\/p>\n<p>Nezianya said: \u201cChief Obiano\u2019s eight-year tenure as the Governor of Anambra State, he consistently demonstrated his dedication and loyalty to APGA, both in words and actions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThroughout his time in office, he championed the ideologies and principles of APGA, working tirelessly to promote its agenda and ensure the party\u2019s continued success.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is, therefore, evident that Chief Willie Obiano has no plans to abandon APGA or join another political party. He said it that \u2018I have no plan now or in future to leave the party\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis unwavering support for APGA shows his long-standing commitment to the party and its values. Speculation in a section of the media that he plans to jump ship are misguided.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
