Committee offers second chance



The screening panel mandated by the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) to interview aspirants on its platform for the November 16 governorship election on Friday disqualified six aspirants including, Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo.

A statement signed by the Chairman of the Gubernatorial Screening panel, Alhaji Tayo Sowunmi, secretary, Mr. Ifeanyi Mbaeri and a member, Chief Onwuka Ukwa, disclosed that six aspirant’s failed the test, while seven scaled through.

The panel said the aspirants have been notified as to the reasons for their non-clearance in the provisional certificate issued to them after the exercise.

However, the unsuccessful aspirants have been given another chance, as they have the opportunity to appear before an appeal panel presided by Chief Tony Ojielo today.

Aside the former Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, others who failed the screening include Mr. Emmanuel Nweke, Ogbuefi Tony Nnaechetta, Mr. Chinedu Francis Idigo, Dr. Chike Obidigbo and Mr. Oseloka Obaze.

DailyPost gathered that part of the reasons the panel cited are the non-presentation of voter’s card, lack of evidence of sufficient financial clout to carry out a governorship campaign and incomplete tax documents.



The seven successful aspirants are: Hon. Chukwuemeka Emmanuel Nwogbo, Mr. Paul Odenigbo, Hon. Uche Lillian Ekwunife, Chief Willie Obiano, Mr. John Nwosu, Mr. John Okechukwu Emeka and Nwachi Patrick Obianwu.

Reacting, Soludo in a statement issued by his media aide, Mr. Bonaventure Melah, said he would accept the party’s decision and also remain a loyal member.

“Our attention has been drawn to the news that the APGA three-man screening panel for gubernatorial aspirants has not cleared Professor Chukwuma Soludo and five other aspirants. I called to inform him of the development and he had a good laugh.

“Without knowing the reason for the decision, he stated that he accepts whatever decision the party takes. He said that he has joined APGA to help build it into a formidable political party and will keep his eyes on that objective,” Melah said.

The panel gave the names of the seven aspirants who were successful: Hon. Chukwuemeka Emmanuel Nwogbo, Mr. Paul Odenigbo, Hon. Uche Lillian Ekwunife, Chief Willie Obiano, Mr. John Nwosu, Mr. John Okechukwu Emeka and Nwachi Patrick Obianwu.

Sixteen aspirants had picked APGA’s expression of interest form and nomination form, but only 13 returned their forms and faced the screening panel.

i was reliably informed that part of the reason for the disqualification was that they refused to pay a compulsory 10m naira for cola. They initially thought it was a trap but most of them will pay the money today and will be cleared.

Am not from Anambara state but Soludo I feel should be the governor. That guy can change the economic situuation of that state and make it another dubai in africa. Its better for Anambara and better for east as a whole. Soludo should be the governor cause he knows wat to do d bring Anambara to the place I want it to be. With the seaport and international airport in view, we need such ppl to arrange the Economy well well. Plz vote for success and not for money. Again am not from that state but I have a strong feelings for him to succeed.

I just met one of the PAs to gov who is a personal friend at a function now at Barnhills Resort here in Awka, he confirmed to me that it is a game plan to unsettle the opposition. And again it is part of the larger scheme to give the entire process transparency that is even why Umeh has to appoint a non Igbo to chair the committee. That Obi and Umeh have agreed weeks before to hand Soludo the ticket, but they have to do some of this things to put some people off balance. Soludo will be cleared and he will go on and to get the ticket..that is it in a nutshell. Got the detail off record from a personal friend who is an insider.

Obi is unpredictable. He might either leave the primaries for the candidates to wriggle there way or give a little support to Obaze. What he did at the last elections stunned his opponents.

I just knew that Soludo won't be thrown off like that. He must have gotten assurance of getting the Apga ticket from Peter Obi before decamping from Pdp.

The PA confirmed to me that Soludo has Obi backing 100% but he does not have to show it openly so that other party faithfuls and more especially Anambra north people will not feel betrayed.

Obi is a schemer..I love the guy. He is in control of all these. It is a deal Obi, Umeh, Soludo and Akunili struck weeks ago before the peace initiative was achieved. Soludo had full assurance from Obi and Umeh with the help of Akunyili who happens to be very close ally to Obi and equally a sister inlaw to Soludo.

Look at another dreamer like Soludo.
Soludo's problem is that he has no real party or political affiliations.
And he is broke. grin

Obi needs a loyal governor and u think he will trust Soludo.
I have noticed that Anambrains are good at being delusional.
U rather believe your wishful dreams rather than the stark reality.

What a bunch of unemployed losers. I dint even know they were all related grin grin
If APGA wins in Anambra, then its lights out for Anambra.
Anambra will become even more irrelevant Nationally.
With the state sinking further than before.

Short sighted leaders like Soludo is the reason why Igbo presidency is not remotely close.
You have shameless self professed political prostitute and yet he has followers.

All this gibberish because you want your sellout Ngige to be governor? Lol, calm your nerves down...
Re: Soludo, Others Offered Second Chance By Screening Committee by PapaBrowne(m): 4:20pm On Aug 17, 2013
This move is very strategic.
Soludo will be recalled.

The goal is simple.
1)
Create a perception of transparency.
If you read the names of those disqualified, you'll find that the most popular candidates are on that list. Soludo and Obaze. Also, Idigo who is Obi's very personal person was also disqualified. With this, the process has an appearance of transperency right from the start.
Secondly, look at the reasons for disqualification: Tax Clearance, Finance and Voter's card. Even me sef go qualify with these easy barriers.

2)Taint the opponents
By making a South Western Muslim be the disqualifier of Soludo, the impact would be negative on Ngige who is is already seen as a stooge for South Western Muslims in the like of Tinubu.

3 )Popularize Soludo
The newspaper headlines are awash with the disqualification of Soludo. That has put his name at the forefront of the elections. It will get Anambrarians talking. The man will look victimized. And in turn would attract sympathy.


Soludo would be cleared today. She na Tax Clearance and Voters card and Financial capacity them say make im bring. Well a former CBN governor would not have a problem with any of that.
