Obi, Nwoye Campaign For Ogene In Ogbaru Federal Constitutency Supplementary Poll
The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), in the recently held general elections, Peter Obi, has appealed to his supporters in Ogbaru, Anambra state, to vote for the LP House of Representatives candidate, Hon Victor Afam Ogene, in Saturday’s supplementary election.
The election in Ogbaru Federal Constituency, was declared inconclusive by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), after the February 25 presidential and National Assembly elections.
Obi assured the Ogbaru people that Ogene is a good candidate, who is humble, loyal and honest – who would ensure that the development of Ogbaru would not be neglected.
Hon. Ogene is former member of the House of Representatives who represented Ogbaru from 2011 to 2015.
Obi made this appeal on Thursday, April 13, while on a road-show campaign tour of the wards in the Ogbaru Federal Constituency, where INEC is slated to conduct supplementary election to determine the ultimate winner of the federal constituency seat.
At the various spots where he presented the LP candidate in the federal constituency, Hon. Ogene to the people of the area, Obi who was accompanied by Senator-elect Tony Nwoye and Mr. Oseloka Obaze told the people that Ogene is committed to his(Obi’s) philosophy of “building a new Nigeria” and told the people “I am here to beg you to vote for us, vote for Labour Party, vote for Afam Ogene, we will support him, and, he will rebuild here (Ogbaru).
“Remember that I built all these roads here when I was governor, if you vote for us in this Saturday re-run election, we will come back to thank you; Afam Ogene will develop here.” Obi, who was also a former governor of Anambra state, said.
The Labour Party won both the presidential and senatorial elections in Ogbaru in February, while its candidate, Ogene, was also leading other parties comfortably in the House of Representatives election before it was declared inconclusive.
