He said, “I have come across a report circulating on social media regarding an APC gathering where my name was mentioned.

“Let me make it unequivocally clear: I do not engage in toxic politics, blackmail, or any form of political manipulation. My name should not be associated with such narratives.

“For the avoidance of doubt, both now and in the future, I am not a member of the APC, nor am I an intending member. My stance on politics has always been rooted in integrity, fairness, and issue-based engagement.

“I firmly believe that all political parties should assess aspirants solely on their competence, capacity, and compassion — qualities essential for building a better Anambra and a better Nigeria.”

He also lent his voice in parties’ primaries, stating that candidates should be judged on key leadership qualities and on transparent grounds.

“As for Valentine Ozigbo, I maintain that he, like every other aspirant, should be evaluated based on these key leadership qualities in his new political party. I wish all political parties the very best in conducting free and fair primaries, and I call on all stakeholders to uphold justice throughout the process.

We must reject toxic politics, for that is the only path to achieving the democratic nation we currently lack. By doing so, we will move closer to the new Nigeria we seek.”
