All Progressives Congress, APC
Guber Campaign Council Takes Message of Change to Njikoka LGA
The All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial campaign train made a strong statement in Njikoka Local Government Area as it continued its statewide engagement ahead of the November 8th governorship election in Anambra State.
At the well-attended campaign event, Nigeria’s former Ambassador to Burundi, Amb. Elijah Onyeagba, expressed confidence that Njikoka would perform impressively at the polls. He also introduced Prof. Nwafia, former Provost of the College of Medicine at Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, as a new member of the APC, hailing his decision as a major boost for the party.
Hon. Basil Ejidike, the APC State Chairman, charged members to remain focused and united, noting that victory at the polls is within reach. He emphasized the importance of voting for the APC by identifying with the broom symbol on the ballot. “If every APC member mobilizes their family and friends to vote, we will win clean,” he said.
The party’s deputy governorship candidate, Senator Uche Ekwunife, CON, reinforced the party’s commitment to grassroots development. She highlighted her past legislative contributions, stating that communities like Enugwu-Agidi, Abagana, and Enugwu-Ukwu benefited from at least two roads each during her time in the National Assembly, notwithstanding other community interventions across the council area. “Our track record is visible and verifiable,” she stated.
The APC governorship candidate, Prince Dr. Nicholas Ukachukwu (Ikukuoma), delivered a passionate address, declaring the party’s mission to fundamentally transform Anambra State. He promised to dismantle exploitative systems like the Akaodo task force, whom he accused of oppressing citizens and causing loss of lives. “They must be made to account for the blood they spilled. They must go!” he thundered.
Ukachukwu also announced a pro-poor policy by stating that the less-privileged will no longer be burdened with tax payments under his administration. “It is unjust to tax those who barely survive,” he added.
The campaign rally had in attendance several dignitaries including APC Anambra South Senatorial aspirant Chief Obinna Uzoh, APC State Women Leader Chief Anaje, Dame Princess Esom Nwafor-Orizu, Lady Carol Ajuora, Ibide Awka, Prof, Nwafia, and a host of other stakeholders.
The event reinforced the APC’s growing momentum across Anambra State as it pushes a campaign built on inclusivity, social justice, and accountable governance.
