Anambra
State literally came to a standstill yesterday as President Buahri used
his charisma and popularity to rake support for Tony Nwoye ahead of the
gubernatorial election in Anambra State.
President Muhammadu Buhari on arrival
Awka, the Anambra State capital was Wednesday shut down for over
six hours, as a result of the visit of President Muhammadu Buhari.
He was in the state to drum support for the candidate of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, in Saturday’s governorship poll, Dr Tony
Nwoye.
The state started experiencing traffic gridlock as early as 10am,
when party supporters from all over the state started arriving in busses
for the campaign.
President Muhammadu Buhari who touched down in a presidential
chopper at about 1:40pm at the Alex Ekwueme square was welcomed by
Governor Willie Obiano, before he proceeded to the rally ground at the
main bowl of the square.
The president while addressing party faithful called on the people
of Anambra State to massively vote for Dr Tony Nwoye, the governorship
candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC). He said Anambra stands
to benefit much by voting APC.
The president said apart from Anambra, the other states in the
South-East would equally gain a lot as several infrastructures have been
earmarked for construction in the South-East in the next year’s budget.
The president was accompanied by 12 governors, and 18 senators from
the party, just as the rally witnessed attendance from serving national
and state lawmakers, ministers, former governors and litany of APC
bigwigs.
Dr Chris Ngige, the Minister of Labour and Employment who spoke at
the occasion said APC in Anambra was thorough in her choice of Nwoye and
Dozie Ikedife as guber candidate and deputy for the Nov.18 election.
Ngige who also hails from Anambra noted that the massive crowd that
took part in the rally was sign that the party was on ground in
Anambra.
“We have toured the nook and carnies of the state during our
campaign tour we are ready for the election and the people are behind
APC.
“The other political parties also in this contest are only
afraid because they have done nothing to show the people that their
parties deserve the mandate of Anambra people again’’, he said.
Ngige, added: “If you are governor, your reward will come from
the people when you perform well, the roads I built more than 14 years
ago are standing, why the ones they built just yesterday are in bad
shape, yet they want another mandate.
“My position here today is to sign a surety on behalf of the
Nwoye and Ikedife, that the two will not fail our people if voted into
office’.”
Meanwhile, first son of the late Igbo leader, Dim Chukwuemeka
Odumegwu Ojukwu, Mr Ojukwu Jnr yesterday dumped the party founded by his
father, APGA for the APC.
The younger Ojukwu told President Buhari that his actions were to
ensure that Igbo land was moved into mainstream national politics.
He berated the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, for always
dragging his late father out at every election, when in the true sense
of it, he was sure his father would have loved to play in mainstream
politics if he were alive.
Chief Victor Oye, national chairman of APGA who reacted to the
defection said his defection had no force. He described Ojukwu Jnr. as a
prodical son.
