He added, “APGA managed to win the last bye-election after the demise of late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, but we will win against them come 2027.” Party member Chinemelum Ubah encouraged the party’s seven local government chairmen and ward executives in the Anambra South Senatorial district to share the news of Nwosu’s candidacy with their constituents, emphasizing the importance of voting and monitoring the election process.
