Anambra governorship: Okowa, Makinde, Ikpeazu drop message for electorate

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governors and other chieftains has called on the people in Anambra to vote and ensure victory for its candidate, Mr Valentine Ozigbo, on Nov. 6 in order to take back their state.

Addressing the crowd of party faithful and supporters at the grand finale of the governorship campaign rally held at the Alex Ekwueme Square, Awka on Tuesday, Gov. Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta said PDP remained the best party for Nigeria.

Okowa said the party had demonstrated through the recent national convention that it was ready to get back to power and reposition Nigeria.

He specifically appealed to women and the youths to vote for PDP on Saturday, saying that victory in Anambra was a precursor to the success of the party in future elections.

Also, Gov. Seyi Makinde of Oyo State described the election as a choice for the best of all the candidates in the race.

Makinde urged the people to unite against bad leadership and those who had told them lies just to have access to power and mismanage their common wealth.

Gov. Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia, who is chairman of the PDP National Campaign Council, said “Anambra deserves to connect to the table of national discourse and should no longer wallow in political parochialism.”
