Aguata Set to Join APC as Political Heavyweights Rally Behind Prince Dr. Nicholas Ukachukwu and Sen. Dr. Uche Ekwunife
A major political shift is on the horizon in Anambra State as Aguata Local Government Area prepares to formally align with the All Progressives Congress (APC). The development is part of a strategic movement aimed at consolidating support for the APC’s gubernatorial hopeful, Prince Dr. Nicholas Ukachukwu, popularly known as Ikukuoma Ndi Igbo, and his running mate, Senator Dr. Uche Ekwunife (Iyom), ahead of the upcoming Anambra governorship election.
The announcement was made by Comrade Ezekafor Ebube (Ebubedike), speaking on behalf of the Ebubedike Progressive Assembly (EPA) and all APC Ward Chairmen in Aguata LGA. In a statement released on Friday evening to our heritage reporter, Comrade Ebube extended a warm welcome to the APC governorship aspirant and his deputy, confirming that the duo will embark on a strategic tour of Aguata.
The visit will take place at the country home of the outgoing governor, signaling a symbolic moment of political transition and realignment in Anambra’s southern zone. The event is expected to draw key stakeholders, party leaders, community representatives, and a large crowd of supporters eager to demonstrate solidarity and optimism for the APC’s emergence in the state.
Comrade Ebube described the tour as a turning point in Anambra politics as stakeholders prepare to connect the state to the federal government, with the aim of attracting greater development and political relevance through the candidacy of Ukachukwu and Ekwunife.
Prince Ukachukwu, a seasoned entrepreneur and philanthropist, has built a strong following across the southeast, particularly due to his grassroots engagement and pro-people agenda. His running mate, Senator Uche Ekwunife, is a prominent figure in Anambra politics with an impressive track record in legislative duties and women’s empowerment initiatives.
As the political landscape of Anambra continues to evolve, the planned tour and political declaration in Aguata could serve as a catalyst for wider defection and support across the state, bolstering the APC’s strength and visibility ahead of the polls.
The stage is now set for Sunday’s historic gathering — one that could redefine the political future of Anambra State.
