Nollywood actor turned politician
Yul Edochie has joined the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
Edochie was the Democratic
Peoples Congress (DPC) candidate in the Anambra governorship election which
held in November.
The movie star from Nteje village
in Oyi local government area of Anambra secured only 145 votes in the poll.
Announcing his defection to APGA
on Instagram, Edochie shared a picture of himself and Anambra governor Willie
Obiano, whom he said, “welcomed me into the APGA family”.
He wrote: “So yesterday my state
governor His Excellency Chief Dr. Willie Obiano (Akpokue Dike) congratulated me
for being brave enough to run for Governor at 35yrs old, for running the race
till the end and for being a worthy ambassador to Anambra/Nigerian youths. He
officially welcomed me into the APGA family.
“With His Excellency Chief Dr.
Willie Obiano(Akpokue Dike) and Chief Sir Victor Umeh(Ohamadike) and Chief Mrs
Bianca Ojukwu (Anyanwu) as they congratulated me, my deputy and brother
@okonkwoemeka_k and our team and welcomed us home.”
