Highlighting her commitment to APGA, Nnabuife added, “If APGA had 70% in the last election, it will be 99.5% from now,” signalling her belief that her return would further boost the party’s prospects.

In a show of commitment to her new political affiliation, Obiokoye presented Nnabuife with a temporary membership card and pledged to serve as a witness to her membership when necessary.
