Former APGA National Chairman Calls for Unity and Return of Defected Members

FORMER APGA NATIONAL CHAIRMAN CALLS FOR UNITY AND RETURN OF DEFECTED MEMBERS

By APGA Publicity Committee 

Former National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Ọzọnkpu Dr. Victor Ike Oye, has issued a heartfelt and prophetic appeal to former party members who defected to other political parties, urging them to return home to the APGA family. 

The call, which he described as divinely inspired, emphasizes forgiveness, unity, and collective purpose as the foundation for the party’s renewed strength and future success.

Dr. Oye revealed that the message came immediately after he stepped out of a spiritually uplifting Holy Mass officiated by Rev. Fr. Emmanuel. According to him, as he was about to enter his car, the Spirit of God ministered to him to reach out to all aggrieved or departed APGA members, regardless of the reasons for their departure, and invite them back into the fold with open arms.

In his words, Dr. Oye stressed that APGA is strongest when its members forgive one another and work together for the common good. He noted that internal reconciliation and renewed solidarity are critical to driving the fortunes of the party and fulfilling its historic mission. “We are stronger when we forgive one another and work together to drive the fortunes of our great party,” he stated.

The former chairman further expressed firm belief that APGA remains divinely positioned to achieve great political heights. He maintained that the party’s destiny is guided by God and that unity among its members is key to unlocking that destiny. 

Dr. Oye emphasized that there is no better time than now for former members to return and contribute to the party’s growth and relevance.

Concluding his appeal, Dr. Oye passionately called for an end to past grievances and urged members to see one another as family. “Let bygones be bygones,” he pleaded, while invoking the party’s rallying cry: “A-P-G-A! APGA! APGA! Be your brother’s and sister’s keeper.” 

The statement was issued on January 18, 2026, marking what he described as a timely and spiritual call to unity within the APGA family.
