------ as Ozigbo vows to reposition Anambra if elected
By David Uka
The People's Democratic Party, PDP has warned those planning to fraudulently write the results in Anambra election to desist as "nobody will ever be able to rig an election in Nigeria
The PDP National Vice Chairman South East Zone, Chief Ali Odefa who stated this during a town hall meeting in honour of the Party’s candidate for the Anambra Election, Vincent Ozigbo with Anambra indigenes living in Ebonyi State at Salt Lake Hotel, Abakaliki, said the days of hijacking the will of the people are long gone".
"This man is a child of destiny. God has blessed you with a visionary gentleman as your incoming governor, and he will bring Anambra out of the trouble they currently find themselves and into the promised land,"
"Those who think they will write the result should know that they have another thing coming. This is a democracy. Elections must be free and fair. Whether you are the ruling party at any level, you cannot write results again.
"We will mobilise people to come out and vote. We will use Anambra as a test case to continue to protect democracy in Nigeria. We will come out in large numbers to vote, and we will defend our votes.
"On November 6, every progressive Anambra person living in Ebonyi should go home and vote for PDP because Anambra is about to witness liberation, the same way Ebonyi will experience liberation.
He announced that the party had put mechanisms in motion to ensure that the November 6 governorship poll would also be free and fair.
Speaking to the large crowd that gathered in his honour,
Valentine Ozigbo, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) flag-bearer in the 2021 Anambra governorship election
assured the people that he lift the state to a greater heights and restore it's lost glory if elected.
According to him, his administration will apply three approaches to revolutionise statecraft and ensure Anambra's rapid development.
"We will adopt a cluster approach, where we will concentrate effort, our attention, and resources on demographies with unique economic potential,"
"Onitsha is a ghost of itself, and we plan to transform Onitsha and its environs into a proper commercial hub. We will develop the Awka Cluster to reflect its status as a capital city. We will harness the tourism potential of Anambra State and ensure that hospitality becomes a viable source of internally generated revenue.
"Nnewi, Ihiala, and the surrounding areas will be industrial hubs that will position Anambra as the king of industrialisation. The Old Aguata Cluster will house a never-before-seen technology hub. At the same time, the Omambala Cluster will be an agricultural hotbed that will go beyond mere production and into the processing of agricultural produce.
"Another is our sector approach. We will revamp education, healthcare, security, infrastructure, and other sectors. Education will become more affordable, qualitative, and relevant. We will upgrade our health facilities to global standards and reduce medical tourism. Every sector that needs attention will receive a facelift". He said.
Some dignitaries that witnessed the occasion include Elder Fred Udeogu, the Ebonyi PDP State Chairman, Dr Hyginius Nwokwu, a former Secretary to the Ebonyi State Government; Chief Christopher Lebara, the Ebonyi PDP State Deputy Chairman among others.
