Breaking News on Anambra 2017 Governorship election: PDP removes Prof Jerry Ghana, drafts Nyesom Nwike for Anambra primaries

www.odogwublog.com reports that the Ahmed Makarfi-led National Caretaker Committee (NCC) this evening removed Pro Jerry Ghana as the Chairman of Anambra Governorship election Primaries.

Ghana was accused of being bought over by a candidate to swing the results in the person’s favour.

Already, Governor Nyesom Nwike of Rivers State has been drafted to chair the Primary election of the PDP Governorship primaries in Anambra.

Though this Blog could not reach, Senator Ndi-Obi or Alhaji Ahmed Markafi as well as Prince Dayo Adeyeye for comments, the former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi dismissed the compromised allegation against Prof Ghana , noting that Ghana remained a first class man of integrity and has remained faithful to the party since inception.

Obi said though he is not contesting anything but when it comes to Anambra state it is a difficult issue and that may have informed the choice of the party to look for a sitting Governor if such has happened.

An Aspirant , Dr Alex Obiogbolu said as a good party man  , whatever decision the party takes is in the best interest of the party.

Other Aspirants like Oseloka Obaze , Dr Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah, Senator Stella Oduah, Ho Linda Ikpeazu among others could not be reached for their views.

Odogwublog recalls that the Anambra State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party [PDP] has taken strategic steps to sanitize the party ahead of the upcoming governorship election, PDP’s spokesman, Prince Dayo Adeyeye.

Adeyeye had said the party dissolved all existing factional executive committees of the party in the state and all existing caretaker committees in state are therefore sacked until further notice as the party strategize for the upcoming election.
