APGA would benefit from Onunkwo's lack of baggages that others are coming to the fray with, which sets him apart from other politicians. His commitment to community development and his willingness to work with the state government to achieve common goals makes him an ideal candidate for the Senate. Onunkwo's message of hope and open-door representation has resonated deeply with the people of Anambra South, and his nomination would give APGA a strong chance of winning the senatorial seat.

By nominating Chief Dr. Ebuka Onunkwo (Seahorse) APGA can demonstrate its commitment to internal democracy and reward a dedicated party member who has consistently supported the party's agenda . Onunkwo's nomination would also send a strong message to the people of Anambra South that APGA is committed to a fresh start as proposed by the INEC Chairman at the stakeholders meeting held yesterday in Abuja. With Chief Dr Ebuka Onunkwo on the ballot paper, APGA can look forward to a bright future in Anambra South Senatorial District and by extension Anambra State in general. This will be a litimus test for the party if they are Keen of getting the cock crow at the Red Chamber of the National Assembly.
