Member representing Ideato North and South Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Ikenga Ugochinyere, has declared that the Action Peoples Party, APP, will win elective positions in the 2027 general election through the ballot rather than through court rulings.
Ugochinyere made the declaration at his hometown of Umukegwu Akokwa in Ideato North while addressing party supporters and political associates.
The lawmaker, who is the APP candidate for the Ideato North and South Federal Constituency, said the 2027 elections would mark a turning point, insisting that the party is fully prepared despite what he described as attempts by the ruling party to manipulate the electoral process, particularly in Imo State.
He described the APP as a new political movement determined to reshape the political landscape of the state.
Ugochinyere also alleged that the ruling party was planning to rig the election but expressed confidence that such efforts would fail because voters would protect their votes before, during, and after the election.
He urged supporters and members of the public to remain vigilant and defend their mandate, stressing that voting is a constitutional right that must not be taken away.
“You people elected me while I’m in exile and you are going to repeat the same thing this time around.
“We will never allow outsiders to destroy the legacies of our forefathers who gave their best to ensure better society.
“Our opponents are afraid of us; they know they lack electoral value, that’s why they are resorting to violence, destroying our billboards but we are not going to allow them. We will continue to beat them at their own game,” he said.
