APC, PDP, APGA in verbal war – TheNigerialawyer

CHAIRMEN of three leading political parties in Anambra State,
the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), the All Progressive
Congress (APC) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) are locked
in hot exchange of words over who succeeds the incumbent governor,
Willie Obiano.

The state chairman of the APC, Chief Basil Ejidike, had declared
that his party would stop at nothing in winning the governorship in
Anambra come 2021.

His PDP counterpart, Chief Ndubuisi Nwobu, in a chat with The
Nation at the weekend, boastfully dismissed the APC , saying that
the party had no place in the political equation of the state.

APGA chairman, Sir Norbert Obi, in a separate chat with The
Nation, described both parties as jokers and confused.

Ejidike, the state’s APC chairman said: ” The Willie Obiano
administration is just counting days and months and that will be
the end of APGA in Anambra.

“We are not relying on what the Vice President; Prof Yemi
Osinbajo said when he attended out round table summit at Prof Dora
Akunyili Women’s Development Center in Awka. Our party has got it’s
mojo back ”

“With our arrangements and inroads already in the state, APC
will stop at nothing in making sure the state joins in the Next
Level’ and we are ready and good to go. All the loopholes that had
blocked the party from winning elections in the state are gradually
being opened. Both PDP and APGA cannot stop the moving train.”

PDP chairman, Chief Nwobu said, “APGA should be following us and
not us following them, the present administration in the state has
collapsed completely and the people are suffering. The 2019
election has shown the pattern of interest Ndi Anambra in the PDP
notwithstanding that we are not in power now at the center or in
the state.

“I don’t want to talk about APC because they are not in the
political space in Anambra. Their boast of taking over the state is
a wishful thinking. Our people will never go back to kindergarten,
they don’t have such capacity.”

The APGA chairman, Sir Norbert Obi said with what Governor
Willie Obiano had already put in place in Anambra State, that it
would be difficult for any other political parties to dislodge his
party in the state. According to him: “We don’t believe in noise
making, but in action.

APGA government has raised the bar of governance here and it
will be a herculean task for any other party to take over the
state.

“We are not relenting because we know all eyes are on APGA and
the other parties are not happy and that is why the Obiano
administration is not taking anything to chance in making sure that
the people are happy.”
