The Governorship aspirant of Abia State, who debunked the report that he had concluded plans to join the All-Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) noted that he is confident of winning the primary election.

According to him, the thought of dumping the opposition party has never crossed his mind, describing it as a mere distraction.
