Anambra: Labour Party Asks Voters To Choose Kidnapped Candidate

Chief Julius Aburre, National Chairman of the Labour Party, has called on electorates in Anambra to vote for the abducted party candidate, Mr  Obiora Agbasimalo, in spite of his absence having been kidnapped last September.

He urged the voters to “shine their eyes” in the November 6 governorship election and vote for the next governor of the state who has shown care to them with his personal resources.

Aburre made the call during the party grand finale campaign train that stormed the commercial city of Onitsha in Onitsha North Local Government Area of the state on Thursday.

He said the Labour party is set to take over the Awka government house to change the present narrative in governance in the state to an enviable standard.

Aburre said that the party was not demoralized with the fact that its candidate Agbasimalo is still in the hands of his abductors.

“We are not deterred by continuous disappearance of our candidate because we trust God to bring him back to us after his victory come Nov. 6.

“The goodwill of the people towards our candidate and his philanthropic gestures will hold sway for him to come serve the people as he had indicated interest,” he said.

He recalled that great men like Nelson Mandela rose from prison to the palace, nothing that this time around, such will happen in this clime.

He appreciated the backbone behind the scene in the campaign, Chief Godwin Agbasimalo (Oga ndi Oga), whom he described as a man who has proved that development can take place in a state through private efforts.

Agbasimalo urged the electorates to reject those who may sway them with financial inducements in order to mortgage their future, assuring them that with Obiora Agbasimalo and Labour Party, Anambra will prosper again.

Mr  Clement Ojukwu, National Organising Secretary of the party, urged the voters to stand with its candidate at this crucial time of his life and prove that good work has a reward.
