Stop deceiving voters with late Ojukwu’s name, APC warns APGA

The All Progressive Congress (APC) deputy governorship candidate, Mr Dozie Ikedife (Jnr), has described as deceitful the campaign strategy adopted by the All Progressives Grand Aliance (APGA), which has been using the name of the late Igbo leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, its campaign.
Ikedife, who spoke in Nnewi, said that over 90 percent of Governor Willie Obiano’s achievements for almost four years now were only on billboards, pages of newspapers and electronic media, adding that he has nothing concrete to show to the people.
He called on Anambra electorate to avoid sentiment in their voting behaviour during the election; urging them to ensure that the current APGA government in the state was changed as it was a disaster.
“Anambra people have demystified the antics of the APGA government’s propaganda. They should allow late Ikemba’s soul to rest in peace,” he said noting that continued use of his name was the biggest deceit of the season.
He queried how a party which presence could not be felt beyond the River Niger or other boundaries of Anambra should be ideal for the Igbo or claimed to be for the interest of the Anambra people and Ndigbo, generally.
He insisted that Ndigbo should reconnect to the centre for maximum benefits of democracy, adding that it was the reason the people were still crying of marginalization when the easy thing to do would have been to connect to the party at the centre.
