Hmm,politicians indeed

[OFFICIAL SPEECH]

Today, I officially joined the All Progressives Congress (APC).

You will recall that the election which returned me as your Senator was mischievously cancelled. The reason which the court adduced was that I was not duly and legitimately nominated as the PDP flag bearer for Anambra Central Senatorial election in 2015.

I also wish to let you know that a Federal High Court Abuja has Prior to this judgement upheld my candidacy in a suit filled by Chief Sylvester Okonkwo challenging the validity of my candidacy.

But then, even if I were not the valid candidate, the right thing for the court was to declare whosoever came second in the PDP Primaries as the authentic candidate and thereby replacing me as it is purely a party matter.

But the court which was FATHER CHRISTMAS granted Victor Umeh what he did not pray for, as his prayer was for the court to declare him winner of the election.

The court which has before it enough evidence that Umeh lost went ahead to nullify the election on the basis of what they called invalid primaries of the Anambra State PDP. A reason which is not strong enough to cancel the election in an appeal filled by APGA and Umeh as other political parties also contested in the election.

The questions remain,
i. How can invalid PDP primaries affect an election which other political parties participated in?
ii. Why should the invalid PDP primaries be a source of granting Umeh who took me to court the nullification of the election which other political parties (which did not go to court) participated in?
iii. Why was my own election the only one that was canceled when the same invalid PDP primaries produced other PDP Senators, Members of the House of Representatives as well as State Assembly Members?

My good people of Anambra Central, the outcome of what we witnessed was a conspiracy between some elements in PDP and the State Government who were panicking over what they referred to as my rising profile.

I am focused and my major concern is to bring back the dividends of democracy to my people. These I have done so far by

i. Being the first woman to be appointed the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Petroleum Downstream.
ii. Sponsoring, moving and leading many Bills and Motions on the floor of the Senate among which is the motion on FLOOD AND EROSION DISASTER IN AWKA, ISUANAOCHA, OBOSI AND OTHER COMMUNITIES IN ANAMBRA CENTRAL.
iii. I also influenced and led the Senate Ad hoc Committee to Anambra State to see and have a first hand touch of what my people are experiencing.
iv. Partnering with the Federal Government to ensure adequate supply of petroleum products
v. Assisted Seven youths to gain employment in the Federal Service since I became a Senator six months ago.
vi. Among others quite numerous to mention here.

Even after these minor setbacks, I advised PDP to conduct primaries in other to produce a candidate who will fly the party’s flag in the oncoming repeat election, but since then, nothing meaningful has been done as they are busy creating more confusion in the party. A confusion which will lead the party nowhere.

My good people of Anambra Central Senatorial District; taking cognizance of these developments, I took time to make wide consultations and have decided to join the All Progressive Congress (APC).
It is true some of us did not give our support to APC in the previous election, it is true you voted for me massively in PDP, but then my brothers and sisters, that seed of confusion that militated against PDP in the previous election is still inherent and may not be of any good to any people.

We Ndigbo cannot continue to be relegated from the national bargain which we are co-owners. This is the time to join forces with the Federal Government to move our country forward.

I remain your amiable lawmaker, I remain your dogged Senator, I promise to give you a much better representation.

Accept the assurances of my best regards.

Thanks.

She once said before the election that APC is an Islamix party

She is seeking for King Buhari's protection. Desperate woman applying desperate measure.

We will use the state apparatus to return her.

By 2019, APC will controlling majority of elective posts in the south EASt.

Congratulations My Crush!!

Just when you think you've heard it all, Naija politician will come swinging from outfield to teach you new things..

Wont stop her pre ordained loss!!! Won't call her names, her acts is doing that!!!

Rotfl. Absolute shamelessness. Kai. These people care about no one. She wants to put the heat of her loss on APC so they will stop her loss. Is she the flag bearer for APC? Can't PDP sue her?

A very wrong move. She has eventually cowered to the APC.

APC be careful with this woman she is a confirmed political prostitute

If I didn't vote for Ngige in APC it is this Shameless prostitute that I will vote for

Congratulations to Victor umeh on his impending flawless victory

Front page.

And the comic show called "naija politics" goes on.

Congrats to Victor Umeh in advance for crusing straight to victory unopposed.

Would this mean she is the only female APC senatorial candidate from the east.

If this is true - she just secured her position - actually. Been a woman in politics has its advantages, especially now that Nnamdi Kani is about to spend life imprisoned - giving her the senatorial seat would definitely score cheap points for apc - but points nonetheless.

Am not surprise she is an overall prostitude both bodily and politically. From destroying ex gov mbadinuju AC to PDP from PDP to PPA to LP from APGA then back to PDP now she is in APC Uche ekwunife na wa for u power is not by force God has bless u pls be contended

Tufiakwa....what rubbish is this?

I disbelieved this news when it first broke and I still can't believe it now

What is this? I hope and pray no single soul votes for her.

Congrats to Victor Umeh in advance.....consistency should have its rewards and very few deserve it like Umeh

Nonsense

Useless politicians without any ideology. They only look for where to get yams to steal.
