*APGA, PDP Aspirants Panic Over Peter Obi, Maduka Romance*

As the governorship primary of the Peoples Democratic Party holds on June 26, one of the frontline guber aspirants, Dr Godwin Maduka, appears to be in pole position to grab the governorship ticket of the Party.

Maduka's recent political romance with the leader of the party and former governor of the State, Mr. Peter Obi, is sending shivers down the spines of other PDP governorship aspirants.

Though the former governor may not have openly endorsed any aspirant for the party's guber ticket, it is believed he may be 'sympathetic" to the guber bid of the Orumba born medical doctor .

The Obi- Maduka romance, is also causing ripples in the All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA, ostensibly because of Peter Obi's towering political influence and weight on Anambra politics.

The former governor has remained a political collosus in the State and has maintained a father figure status in the State, because of his outstanding and impressive performance, when he governed Anambra State for eight years on the platform of APGA.

It is believed that whoever Mr. Peter Obi endorses for the PDP guber Primary and forthcoming guber election, is one inch close to Government House, Awka.

Observers of the forthcoming governorship election in the State, contend that the recent romance between Dr. Maduka and Peter Obi, is also raising eyebrows among stakeholders in the State, including aspirants in APGA, APC and other political parties.

Last Saturday, Dr. Maduka was the only governorship aspirant present at Mr. Peter Obi's hometown, Agulu, where the former governor led Dr. Maduka to commiserate with victims of Sickle Cell ailment.

The event was part of activities to celebrate World Sickle Cell Day.

Dr. Maduka and Peter Obi were together, when they paid a condolence visit to the family of late PDP Youth Leader in Agulu Ward one, Jonathan Obiesie.

While condoling with the family of the deceased to bear the loss of Mr. Obiesie with fortitude, Mr.Obi, also spoke on the need for the people of Anambra State to elect a credible governor in the forthcoming election.

He said Anambra State is in dire need of someone commited to the development of the State, and not one who will embezzle State funds and impoverish the people.

He also stated there is need for the people of the State, to elect a governor who has positive antecedents and good records in tbe past.

Political observers contend that Mr.Obi's postulation, perfectly suits Dr. Maduka, who is the only governorship aspirant, known to have impacted positively on the lives of the people of Anambra State through the activities of his Foundation.

The simplicity and non shenanigans of Peter Obi is still not televised enough.

I know other notable politicians or big men will cancel this outing if they become aware that the place will be scanty and no hangers on to hail them, but Peter will prefer this particular settings.

It seems Dr maduka also have that kind of personality.

as a nigerian, and a lover of democracy and sound minds, maduka and soludo all the way, but because of 2023 elections, soludo all the way, soludo should do 4years and maduka should continue from there, cheers to great anambraniers, a people blessed with abundant human resources and spiritual resources.

Anyone that Peter Obi recommends has his chances boosted by 50%.
That guy transformed Anambra state to having the best affordable public education system till date and overtaking South West in a few years in terms of mass performance in WAEC and NECO, as a result of which they are imposed with the highest cutoff marks in JAMB and admissions criteria.
Another thing I noticed when I visited that state is that they have the best and most extensive rural road network in Nigeria and the bad roads are mostly Federal roads like Onitsha to Enugu expressway

Let the people speak with one voice and forget about the highest bidder. If not they will remain where they have always been since Peter Obi leave the seat.
