The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Anambra State, has warned the state Governor, Willie Obaino, to desist from using the name of late Igbo warlord, Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, to deceive people of the state into voting for him during the November 18, 2017 governorship election in the state.

Chairman of the state Chapter of the party, Kenneth Emeakayi, in a statement in Awka, described Obaino’s action as deceitful and nauseating.

Emeakayi claimed that by frequently dropping the name of Ojukwu, he was inadvertently acknowledging that he had not recorded any achievement in the past three years to earn him another electoral victory.

In a statement he personally signed, Emeakayi said, “During the campaigns for the 2010 gubernatorial election, the major streets of Anambra State were flooded with a particular billboard bearing the photograph of our great leader, Ojukwu raising the hand of former governor Peter Obi, with an inscription: ‘This is my last wish.’

“Having won the 2010 gubernatorial election, the APGA government of Anambra State under former Governor Peter Obi erected and hoisted new billboards in all major streets of Anambra State, in honour and to immortalize the pride and symbol of the Igbo nation, Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu.

“Similarly, every single billboard and APGA campaign material for the 2013 governorship election in Anambra State had the photograph of Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, and APGA leveraged heavily on Ojukwu’s name to win the said election.

“Disappointingly, no sooner did Chief Willie Obiano become the governor of Anambra State on March 17, 2014, than all the billboards bearing the photograph of Ojukwu, disappeared from the streets of Anambra State.

“But just about six months to another gubernatorial election in Anambra State, the Chief Willie Obiano-led APGA government has suddenly again remembered the name of Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu. Billboards are now being hoisted, while government-owned vehicles are branded with Ojukwu’s photograph.

“Amazingly, Governor Willie Obiano, in three years did not complete any single project in Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu’s home town of Nnewi.”

You know?like sneaking in like a thief in the night.

Ojukwu or no Ojukwu Obiano will be re-elected.Though I detested his cowardly reaction to the may 30 massacre last year in Onitsha,i will still give him pass mark for his economic and infrastructural transformation of the state.PDP will be runner up in the election.I don't even see the APC making it to 4th runner up in that election.I will be surprised if their aprty wins a single polling booth during the election

gurnam:


The truth is but for the bragging right of having more states under it control, APC have no need of Anambra. If you can control Lagos, Kano FCT, [b]Delta and Rivers state [/b]that are basically the most strategic states in Nigeria, then you are good to go.

Chuksonyeike:


And you think the APC can win Rivers and Delta state? what brand of weed have you been smoking?

gurnam:


Are your blind or you simply lack comprehension? Did I say they would win or the states that hold strategic importance?
Go and clean your eyes with strong hypo
The simple truth is that thee 5 Eastern states hold no STRATEGIC ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE TO NIGERIA - but needed for adding to the electoral votes and bragging.

Chuksonyeike:

Oh I forgot its states like Osun that holds stratetegic economic importance.Hence they were virtually starving and people were donating to their impoverished citizens !!!

omenkaLives:
Theyd soon hold a revival inside your mentions.

Kingsley10000:
peter obi hates obiano passionately

gurnam:


Lmao! Outside shouting afonja and Muslim, most of them are very shallow and pretty unintelligent

steppin:

Says the gullible, zombie follower.

gurnam:



Like I rightly said, none of you can hold an intelligent discussion on this forum.

steppin:

Your reverse bullshît won't work. Try that on someone else.
I've seen your posts, and if that's what you call intelligence, then I'd rather wallow in stupidity than that.

gurnam:


You are already wallowing in stupidity here already

steppin:

Same as you are. There's nothing intelligent about your posts.
Leave the bragging for people who actually intelligent.

gurnam:


See what I'm taking about!! Once you are engaged, you will start manifesting that obvious shortcoming

steppin:

If you were as intelligent as you say you are, you would know that it's an omission.
But you aren't, so I understand.
The truth is, you have nothing to say but you're looking for a reason to run to the mods like your fellow zombie, omenkalives.

gurnam:


Of course if you break any rule by way of insults that is the default mode of ipob miscreants, the mods will kick you out. You can only cry

steppin:

I ain't giving you the satisfaction, since part of the default mode of a zombie, is running to the mods like a coward.

gurnam:


If you've not done anything wrong, you don't need to fear the mods, but knowing an ipob miscreant, it won't take you long before the switch snap in your head

steppin:

Blah blah blah! You're doing a poor job.
Try harder.
