Anambra November’s epic final battle
The coterminous point is that the three major political parties in the state have enough crises on their hands that can deny them the governorship of the state. Those range from litigation to internal party wranglings.
They have their strengths too. While APGA is the ruling party with some striding gaits in the past 15 years it has saddled the affairs of the state, PDP has strong footings in the state as laid down by a former vice president, the late Dr Alex Ekwueme, one of the founding fathers of the party. As his daughter, Chidi Onyemelukwe, one of the aspirants on the party’s platform said, “Anambra people have PDP’s DNA in their blood.
The APC that is the ruling party at the centre has a large following and great politicians that can win the Anambra poll for the party, including the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige.
Be it as it may, the Young Progressives Party, which has nominated Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, an oil mogul, is another party to watch in the race. Ubah has been busy traversing the state for campaigns on a platform that is almost totally rancour-free.
