No Primary Held In Anambra — 11 APC Aspirants

Eleven of the 14 governorship aspirants of the All Progressives
Congress (APC) in Anambra have said the June 26 governorship
primary in the state did not hold.

Dr George Muoghalu, spokesperson for the aspirants, made the
position of the group known in a press conference on Saturday in
Awka.

Muoghalu said that in all the 326 electoral Wards of the state,
people came out, but were disappointed, saying that none of the APC
team saddled with the responsibility to conduct the primary and the
Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) officials were seen.

Muoghalu, the Managing Director of National Inland Waterways
Authority (NIWA) and one of the aspirants, said anybody who claimed
that there was primary is fraudulent and did not wish APC well in
the November 6 election.

Paul Orajiaka and Edozie Madu, both aspirants, corroborated the
position of Muoghalu and warned that the era when one man would
come up with fake figure to claim victory is over.

The aspirants, however, appealed to the party leadership to come
up with a fresh date for the Anambra primary to ensure that the
party beat the deadline in the Electoral Act.

Other aspirants at the event were Johnbosco Onunkwo, Ben Etiaba,
Amobi Nwaokafor, Chidozie Nwankwo, Geoffo Onyjegbu, Azuka Okwuosa,
among others.
