‎Ozoigbo, a chieftain of the Labour Party (LP) in Anambra State and former Head of Lo­gistics for the party’s National Campaign Organisation during the 2023 general elections, said he resigned from LP and joined APC, along with his followers to support Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu as APC’s governorship candi­date in Anambra State, describ­ing Ukachukwu as a grassroots politician and philanthropist of note, adding that Ukachukwu’s popularity would boost the APC’s chances.

‎Another defector from Orum­ba South Local Government Area, Mazi Echemba, explained that the defecting members decided to support Ukachukwu because of his track records of achievements, philanthropic disposition and ability to provide democracy dividends and that LP members were convinced APC was the party to align with the ruling party at the centre, stressing change was imminent.
