I am 100% confident that my political party, the All progressive Grand Alliance, (APGA) by the grace it will be the party to win all elections with landslide victory across Nigeria.

And the leadership of our party both at the National, state, local government and at ward level are all doing well. The party is also peaceful. l must commend the efforts of party leadership so far, and Insha Allah in the forthcoming elections we are going to coast home victory.
APGA is the third largest political party in Africa, and by God’s grace, we will climb number one this time. I urged all Nigerians to shun PDP and APC because they have woefully failed.
