Seven months to the conduct of the November gubernatorial election in Anambra State, the ten support groups of the Late Ifeanyi Ubah Political Family have denied reports that they have endorsed a gubernatorial candidate, insisting that they have not transferred their support to any candidate or political party.
The groups, under the umbrella of Sen Ifeanyi Ubah Political Family (SIUPOF) and led by the Director General of the Sen Ifeanyi Ubah Campaign Organization, Chief Vincent Onyeka, noted that the family would endorse a candidate that shares the same political ideology and vision as their late principal, Sen Ifeanyi Ubah.
Recall that about nine gubernatorial aspirants have been endorsed by several groups claiming to be members of the Late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah Political Family across the three major political parties in Anambra State.
Also speaking, the former Media Assistant to the Late Sen Ifeanyi Ubah, Mr. Kameh Chuks, warned that it is left for the aspirants to conduct due diligence in verifying those masquerading as late Sen Ifeanyi Ubah’s support groups in order to avoid being deceived by their perceived endorsers.
According to Mr. Vincent Onyeka:
“As we continue to mourn the painful and untimely departure of our beloved principal, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, we remain committed to upholding his legacy and vision for a better Anambra State.”
“In light of the forthcoming November 8, 2025, Anambra governorship election, we wish to inform the general public, our supporters, and political stakeholders that we have not endorsed or thrown our weight behind any aspirant.”
“We urge the public, especially our loyal supporters, not to be misled by speculations, unfounded claims, or attempts by certain individuals to exploit our revered political structure for their personal interests.”
“We assure you that the leadership of this political movement is working diligently and consulting widely to ensure that, when the time comes, we make an informed and strategic decision that aligns with the vision and dreams of our late principal.”
Continuing, Onyeka noted that:
“Our political structure is built on the principles of human capacity development, infrastructural transformation, and selfless service to the people.”
“We are carefully scrutinizing the antecedents, leadership qualities, and commitment of various aspirants to the core ideals that Senator Ifeanyi Ubah championed, including good governance, human capacity development, infrastructural transformation, economic empowerment, security, and inclusive leadership that prioritizes the welfare of the people,” he said.
