The Tony Nwoye Campaign Organisation has accused Governor Willie Obiano’s administration of appropriating projects carried out by his predecessor and claiming that they were done by him.


Nwoye’s campaign spokesman, Nonso Madu, in a statement, alleged that the Obiano administration has also laid claim to some projects carried out by the Federal Government because it had nothing to show.


“With no tangible projects to show to the people after four years, the Willie Obiano administration has resorted to make-belief to deceive the people. He has made a mockery of governance by changing the signposts of projects completed by previous administrations, a fact manifested by the recent effort of his agents to change the sign of Ndiowu Town Road constructed by a previous administration as that done by his government.


“Obiano can change the sign posts, but Anambrarians know he met the roads already completed when he was sworn in four years ago. Even more, he cannot change our minds concerning the failure of his government. Another form of deceit is when the Obiano government castigates the Federal Government but will want to dress beneficiaries of Federal Government projects in his campaign clothes.


“We want to tell him if he does not know, that to dress up beneficiaries of the APC Federal Government Youth Empowerment Programme (N-Power) in APGA campaign tee-shirts, making them believe that N-Power is his administration’s project is deceitful.


“Changing the clothes of the beneficiaries will not change the hearts of beneficiaries. Our people are not deceived. This deceit follows the government’s previous propaganda schemes of claiming credit for exportation of food items that were never produced in the state,”Madu said.


In a related development, Nwoye has pledged to work tirelessly to better the lives of the people of the state if elected.


Speaking when he took his campaign to Awka, the state capital, Nwoye assured that he would remain resolute to serve effectively and efficiently to justify the trust reposed in him by the people of the state. He told the crowd that he would deliver good governance for the collective good of all Anamberians and enjoined them to identify with his progressive agenda for the state’s development.


The APC candidate said if elected his administration would work on a tripod of security, infrastructural development and job creation. Aware that a safer Anambra would attract more investments from local and foreign investors, Nwoye promised to improve in the first quarter of his stepping into office, security with investment in sector that would pave way for free flow of investors within and outside the State.


Nwoye further said that with the investment he would make in security equipment crime rate would reduce in the state to the bearest minimum.
