So you mean this Doctor who has made several nairaland threads since 2018 got primaried?

Papa deceive pikin, party.
Its a shame that PDP will never change from their foolishness, why short change your best candidate for a pot of porridge ?. If APC wins now they will be shouting rigging, whereas PDP that just rigged maduka's interest away from Igbos destiny.
I will advice Mr Maduka to decamp to Apc, even if its deputy governor ticket let him collect it, so as to spite PDP's interest.

Disenfranchised Anambra PDP Delegates: "Guber Primary, A Coup Against Maduka, Mockery Of Democracy"


Majority of delegates disenfranchised by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Anambra State for the party’s governorship primary, which took place on Saturday, June 26, have taken a swipe at the party leadership, lamenting that the exercise was undemocratic and “a coup” against one of the leading governorship aspirant, Dr. Godwin Maduka.

Most of the delegates who spoke to our reporter said they preferred to vote for Maduka before the PDP leadership suddenly changed the rules of the primary midway in the contest.

“I was set to cast my vote for Dr. Godwin Maduka at the primary before suddenly like a coup against him, the elected party delegates were withdrawn from taking part in the Primary.

“It is unfortunate that the PDP has not divorced itself from such undemocratic practices and political roguery which has always been its undoing. It’s very unfortunate” said Chris Ezeuogo, one of the elected delegates from Aniocha Local government.

Maduka seems to have found favour and acceptance from most of the elected delegates across the party in the State ahead of the June 26, 2021 governorship primary won by Valentine Ozigbo.

But the national leadership of the PDP threw spanners in the works for the medical doctor cum politician, when few hours to the governorship Primary, it changed the rules, and excluded over 3,000 elected ad hoc and statutory delegates from the process. Which also involves changing the list 3 times in 24 hours before the guber primary election.

Citing Court orders, the party by the decision, left only serving and former public office holders belonging to the party to choose its governorship candidate for the November 6, 2021 governorship election.

By the exclusion of 94% of the delegates (over 3,000), only 6% of the delegates (about 29) choose the candidate of the party, an act which put to question the democratic credentials of the PDP, and may further divide the party ahead of the governorship election.

According to some of the disenfranchised delegates, the process was a deliberate attempt to deny Maduka, one of the astute guber aspirants in the party, the opportunity to become the governorship flag-bearer of the party.

It was observed that Maduka’s level of acceptance among the party executives, and the elected delegates had soared because of his commitment to the party and close relationship with party faithful, members and the delegates.

Another disenfranchised delegate, Kenneth Odili from Ekwusigo Local government said Maduka is the only governorship aspirant who has done so much for the PDP in Anambra State.

He said “At a time this party was almost dead, this man revived the party. He is always ready to assist the party at any time. He never hesitated. He had donated vehicles to all the local government chapters of the party. He had also donated huge funds to the party on several occasions, particularly many times the party had gone into financial distress. He was like the messiah of the party.

“This and among other things endeared him to the party delegates, who wanted to use their votes to reward the Orumba born politician.

Chief Ugonabor Omemba, another party delegate was furious with his disenfranchisement as a delegate.

He said the PDP has "dug its political grave by the grievous way it elected its governorship flagbearer"

His words “ “The PDP in Anambra state has goofed. They have begun the process of losing the governorship election on November 6 by not choosing Dr Maduka. He is the only aspirant with the political muscle and financial stamina to match Obiano, Soludo and APGA and the APC.

"He is acceptable across the state and very popular. We needed such a candidate who would have give APGA and APC a run for their money in the governorship election.

Chief Omemba advised Dr. Maduka to leave the PDP for another political party to further his guber ambition.

“I call on Dr. Maduka to leave the PDP and choose another political party. I and other disenfranchised delegates and many of our members in the PDP, who are unhappy with this undemocratic practice, are willing to go with him to any part of his choice.

This so true. Anything you see that Alexreports hypes, na lori iro things. Same way he overhyped one Olawepo-Hashim as the people's choice for the 2019 general elections sotey I was wondering why I wasn't hearing about the guy outside of Nairaland. Turned out the guy barely got a hundred votes nationally

Did the same for Ned Nwoko and suddenly stopped. Now this Maduka guy don hear am too.

Fear Hypeman o

I have a problem with Alexreporter! His choice candidates Never win their prospective party primaries. Need and Dr Maduka comes to mind.

Simplyleo onionbandit what do you have to say

Pdp were smart that's all. The writer for got that court judgement pronounced the activities of the pdp anambra void, assuming if pdp go out with the elected delegates, the election and candidate will also be pronounced void. The only option for them was to use statutory delegates.

Stop typing jargon here! Prof Soludo is not Ayade. He's a seasoned technocrat and one who knows his game.

You're crying because a tout like the Ubas was not chosen in place of well qualified Soludo.

Anambra has been getting things right with the choice of candidate they elect as governors starting from the days of Peter Obi. Kudos to them

Sometimes I feel pained that we can't help those who are truly in need because of our past experiences.

How did maduka who has gained so much popularity among the electorak delegates and the masses loose primaries.. ?? i suppect foul play on the part of apc. A very mischeivous devilish party to use the judiciary as a tool and attempt to prevent popular cndidates from emerging as their party flagbearer just so that their person can coast home to victory at the polls. their evil plots wil be met with stiff resistnce. a very devilish political party supported by paid online rats

Our electoral law is faulty. That’s why we would keep having bad leaders and bad representatives. The law only allows a few party executives to choose flag bearers from counselor to president of a political party. Why won’t there be wuruwuru?
Let’s go back to Open Balloting System (Option A4). Let everybody come out and stand behind their candidates (or his/her poster) amd let’s use louder megaphone (Ahuja etc) to count and announce results. It will be difficult for corrupt politicians and their godfathers to ‘rig’ elections. Thank God we now have phones that can record. As the final numbers are announced ward-by-ward, people are recoding and capturing it and results are being shared. Let us now see who will come and announce another thing other than the ones we have all recorded as final.
Without changing that law, my people, Nigeria is going nowhere.
