The Anambra State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC has expressed optimism and confidence in securing about forty per cent of the total lawful votes to be cast during the February 25th Presidential election in the state.
It noted that the support strength under the kitty of the party in Anambra has become a source of worry for other political parties and their candidates in the state.
Coordinator of the Tinubu/Shettima Campaign Council in Anambra, Senator Margery Chuba-Okadigbo during the inauguration of the Anambra State Campaign Rally Planning Committee held in Awka the state capital.
Represented by Sen Emma Anosike, she
pointed out that the South East must learn not to put their whole eggs in one basket.
According to Senator Okadigbo, “Those who are sceptical about APC support base in Anambra state would be surprised at what would be the outcome if the February general elections”
The APC chieftain said, “This is because we are already sure of at least 40 Percent Votes In Anambra state and we know that other campaign organizations are apprehensive about this and they feel threatened because of that”
“In politics everyone would not belong to the same party and that has been the bane of the South East geopolitical zone at every general election and at this time we don’t need to put our eggs in one basket”
Also, the Chairman of the Rally Planning Committee and one-time governorship aspirant, Hon Azuka Okwuosa said that those who are trying to create a crisis in the party are only doing that to their own peril.
He stated that the party has been able to resolve all burning issues that have to do with the membership of the campaign council.
“In politics, it is normal for people to have some little or minimal issues but they have all been resolved and everyone is back to the family”
On his part, the Chairman of Publicity Committee of the State Campaign Council, Sir Chris Chikwelu urged the party faithful to work hard for the party’s victory in the state..
