*ANAMBRA 2021: VALENTINE OZIGBO AND HIS POLITICAL RIVALS.*

By Ifeanyi Ndukwe (Saint)

Valentine Ozigbo, is probably the only candidate in the gubernatorial elections who is without critics hitting from all four walls. Like a falcon that must deliver its master's (Jehovah) message of hope to the people, he stands in the accused box of his political rivals.

Ozigbo is surrounded by vicious and heavy criticisms most of which are unfounded, but perhaps necessary in pulling down his support base. Currently, the attacks has increased to a daily routine possibly to invalidate his chance of winning the upcoming governorship elections in the state.

Some of the criticism though expected are as spurious as the charge of godfatherism.

Firstly, Ozigbo is no fan of godfatherism. He is a brilliant and confident Christian who believes in God and shares maximum faith in achieving his visions by merit and by grace. Except for politics, those who have known him for quite some time will attest to his meek and meticulous manner of focus and discipline in achieving his goals.

Ozigbo made it clear from the very beginning in the race that he had no godfather. So, such charge of fulfilling a godfather's intent against the will of the people is ludicrous.

A youth of his calibre who happened to have grown under the auspices of a headmaster as a father must have earned his privileges and accomplishments through hardwork and special skills. It takes a whole lot of competence, integrity and vision to stay the course of a multi-billion naira company and the many institutions that he transformed to total success across all borders.

Even in his style of politics, the manner he plays it sends a defining signal of humility, sense of responsibility and politics of inclusion. It may not be public knowledge but his present position as a PDP flagbearer did not come on a platter of gold. He experienced huge challenges along that rugged path.

A closer look into his *KA ANAMBRA CHAWAPU MANIFESTO* details a conscious effort to reposition the state and make her an enviable site of attraction for business and industrialisation.

The Five pillar cluster plans involving the major towns in Anambra State is aimed at promoting total transformation in the state.

Interestingly, the worst of Valentine Ozigbo critics cannot deny that he has the capacity and experience to move the state to higher levels if elected on November, 6. You would agree with me that those opposed to his governorship campaign are nursing their grievances because they fear he will not succumb to their manipulations.

Ozigbo is an accomplished selfless man who possess the required qualities and cognitive competence to run Anambra State. He is a believer of the Kaizen philosophy ; which signifies continuous improvement and productivity. He believes that true leadership is the ability to stay on course amidst diverse challenges.

Valentine Ozigbo is the most fit for the Office of the Governor of Anambra state as at now when the economies of most states on the east of the Niger are failed and needs the best economic approaches to revitalize them as well as promote rapid project implementation to improve their livelihoods.

Valentine Ozigbo presents us a hope of a bigger and brighter Anambra, as our light will shine forth again.
