APGA to Ukachukwu: Your plan to rig Anambra governorship election will fail

The All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, has told the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, for the forthcoming governorship election in Anambra State, Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu, that his plans to rig the election will fail.

An APGA chieftain, Mr Chinedu Obigwe, made the assertion while reacting to Ukachukwu’s claims that the APC will surely win this weekend’s senatorial by-election to replace late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, as well as the governorship election.

Obigwe said even though APGA has perfected plans to rig, such plans would fail.

He dismissed the boastful comments as self-deceit, saying the APC candidate lacked the political strength to deliver victory for his party in the state.

Parts of Obigwe’s statement read: “I will state without mincing words that Ukachukwu is dwelling in self deceit. He knows very well that APC is not in existence in Anambra and that he does not have the required electoral value to give his party victory in any election here.

“This is a man that has never won any election in Anambra State since he started contesting. Ukachukwu lost the 2023 Anambra South Senatorial race to the late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah despite allegedly smuggling manufactured results from Osumenyi into the collation centre.

“Ukachukwu had been lobbying APC governors to deploy resources for election rigging in Anambra, using the forthcoming by-election as a test run.

“Whatever evil plan they want to perfect in the State on August 16 and November 8 will be vehemently resisted by the vigilant electorate.

“Anambra is APGA land and the people will continue voting for APGA candidates because the party has justified the confidence reposed in it.”
