The outcome of the Supreme Court judgment billed for October 20, 2021 next week has let the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Anambra State in jittery and tends to worsen the already polarised rank and file of the party, with each camp out to work against the interest of the other aftermath of the verdict.

Currently, APGA has three rival National Chairmen: Victor Oye backing Chukwuma Soludo’s governorship ticket, Jude Okeke supporting Chukwuma Umeoji and Edozie Njoku, respectively, believably rooting for Nicholas Ukachukwuas different flag-bearers for the November 6, 2021 governorship election.

The Supreme Court judgment is coming on the heels of replacement of Umeoji’s name earlier enlisted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) with that of Soludo and rejection of Oye’s application for joinder by the Court of Appeal, which ordered him to return to the High Court where Njoku was given recognition as the National Chairman to seek for such relief.

The Guardian gathered that implosion being awaited in APGA might have compelled the stakeholders, including traditional rulers, religious and town union leaders to settle for an alternative party that will not only produce the next governor of Anambra State, but also be in strong contention for the 2023 Presidency.

An impeccable source, who confided in The Guardian, contended that the stakeholders were not keen on supporting the candidate of APC, Senator Andy Uba, over alleged anti-Igbo sentiment of the party and counterpart in Zenith Labour Party (ZLP), Dr. Obiora Okonkwo, over anti-power shift aspiration.

The development in Imo State where the serving governor came to power through Supreme Court’s controversial verdict, and the attendant killings, arson and disappearance of some youths that trailed the governor’s one-year in office, the stakeholders observed, are ominous signs that APC is not desired in Anambra State.

As a way out, the stakeholders, according to the source, have developed soft spot for ADC, which not only has an Igboman from Anambra State, Chief Ralphs Okey Nwosu, as its National Chairman, but also a one-time-time Special Adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan, Nze Akachukwu Nwankpo, who is deemed not to have a political baggage.

According to the source, the stakeholders are good to go with ADC, which with the backing of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, emerged as a consensus party to produce the presidential candidate in the lead to the 2019 election, but for last minute development.

Further investigation by The Guardian showed that last week’s declaration of the former Young Progressives Party (YPP), Prof. Kingsley Moghalu, is putting ADC in a better stead for both the 2021 governorship election and 2023 presidential contest.

It was gathered that Moghalu’s entry into ADC was part of the strategies to open a floodgate, which will see no fewer than 10 other good presidential materials join ADC as an alternative party to APC and PDP at the national level.

Anambra is APC.

Moferere:
ADC will not even come 4th

Abohboy:


We'll see when the election starts but from what i've been hearing PDP is basically out of the race and the people of Anambra State believe that APC is Anti Igbo so currently it is really just ADC vs APGA vs ZLP

Moferere:


The election is between APC and APGA

moriss33:
Anambra People should better vote for Dr Godwin Maduka, whi has a track record of doing more for his people from his own purse than another career politician.

drizslim:
ADC no get say for Nov 6 na Biafra or nothing!

Anambra is APC.

No government has been so fair to the East than Buhari's government. This should send a positive message to the people of Anambra. APC under the great leadership of Buhari is concerned about Progress and development both at the Federal, States and Local Governments.

Meanwhile, it is only “Free and Fair and Credible Elections” that can save Nigeria. “Free and Fair and Credible Elections” is the only saviour that can bring Nigeria out from all these mess that we are currently experiencing..

With “Free and Fair and Credible Elections”, the elected officers would always be thinking about the people, and not about the INEC or the Electoral Officers on the field.

With “Free and Fair and Credible Elections”, the elected officers would not be bothered about the godfathers or the cabals. In fact, the cabals themselves would be the ones helping the elected officers in looking out for ways to better satisfy the people so that they would not loose out by the next election.
..
With “Free and Fair and Credible Elections”, looting is minimised, because the people now have a very strong voice. The people would from time to time demand for an interaction with the elected officer either through an on-air live radio/television program, or through a press conference, or through a town-hall meeting, of which such an officer would not decline, since he knows the repercussions for denying his people such an opportunity for interaction.
..
With “Free and Fair and Credible Elections”, Government would always be under the full watch of the people, and with that, a lot of senseless excesses of the Government would be under tight check. The people would be in full control of the Government's activities, since they now have a strong voice (even though the voice is heard only Once-In-Four-Years).

TabletMan:
You people don't use to get it. Apc will only come second with manipulation not because Anambra hates Apc but because Andy UBA is not loved and cherished by the people. If Dr Chris Ngige is to be the flag bearer of Apc you will see that what you read online differs from reality. Soludo might even lose against Dr Chriis in a free and fair election.
