Anambra: Andy Uba Asks Soludo To Surrender
…says allegation of result writing is defeatist
The Senator Andy Uba Governorship Campaign Organisation, SAUGCO has urged the rival All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA candidate, Prof Charles Soludo to quit the governorship race, surrender and like true compatriots warmly congratulate the presumptive winner of the contest, Senator Andy Uba.
Speaking against the backdrop of claims by APGA that the APC has already written results of 10 Local Government Areas, SAUGCO wondered how on the eve of a yet-to-be conducted election, such ludicrous assertion can be made by a serious political party.
The Anambra State Government statement conveying the allegation was made by the Commissioner of Information and Public Enlightenment, Mr. C. Don Adinuba who also doubles as spokesman of the Soludo Campaign.
“Indeed, if APGA were to believe their own lies, why then are they still pretending to be in the governorship race? Real politick, as well as real life situation dictates that, once one is snookered beyond help, the right and appropriate step to take is, throw in the towel of surrender,” Hon Victor Afam Ogene, director, Media and Publicity, Senator Andy Uba Governorship Campaign Organisation, SAUGCO said to the Soludo team.
“Anyone who has followed the trajectory of APGA’s campaign leading up to Saturday’s poll would have noted that the dominant theme of its electioneering was the flurry with which it manufactured one tale after another, all targeted at the APC.
“For an issue as delicate as having some results of today’s election already written, how come APGA is the only political party privy to this fact?
“As a matter of fact, are we not been confronted with a fait accompli by the outgoing Governor Willy Obiano administration, in a classic case of the witch crying in the night, and the child dying at dawn.
“For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to reiterate – as we have always done in the course of the campaigns – that the winner of the Anambra governorship election would only emerge from votes garnered at the various polling units across the state. To attempt to pull wools over our eyes, as APGA is clearly doing, is a gambit taken too far, and we shall resist it with every vehemence at our disposal.
“Only few hours earlier, the same Adinuba who doubles as Spokesman of the Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo campaign had also cried wolf, claiming to have, again, “received credible intelligence reports about moves by a certain political party to use the instrumentality of the state to arrest key officials of the State Government anytime on trumped up charges.”
“Curiously, the same official was to go ahead to state emphatically that “none of the heads of national security agencies is aware of this plot.”
“We conclude that the idea of alleging that results of 10 local government had already been written 24 hours to the commencement of voting is defeatist and should also transmute to reality. It is then our prayer that Anambra people will roundly reject the party and a government that have abysmally failed virtually on all fronts of development.”
