Frontline contender in the November 18, 2017 Anambra governorship election, Chief Osita Chidoka has received correspondences from the Anambra State working committee of party, the United Progressive Party (UPP), recanting on the controversial and unlawful suspension order as well as apologizing for the embarrassment the episode caused the party. This was disclosed in a statement by the Chidoka’s campaign office Friday.
Chief Chidoka, thereafter called on all members of the UPP, especially delegates to the governorship primaries, to put the unfortunate and distracting episode behind them and continue to work hard as nothing whatsoever can stop the people of Anambra state from reclaiming their state through UPP’s determined goal of winning the governorship election.
He said while those who fuelled the now resolved issue had aimed to use it to scuttle our August 19, 2017 governorship primaries, the UPP, as a focused party has overcome its adversaries and now heading to win the main election come November 18th.
Chief Chidoka therefore urged all members and supporters of our great party to continue to be at alert as the enemies of our dear state, who having realized UPP’s inevitable destination, are now in frenzy mode, seeking all means to distract and disorient our ranks.
“We are not unaware of plots being hatched by these foes of Anambra state to destabilize our party and attempt to manipulate the mandate of the people in this election, but we know that Ndi Anambra have made up their minds to join forces with the UPP to free our state from the shackles of the oppressive few,”his campaign office said in a statement.
On this score, Chief Chidoka beckoned on all the people of Anambra state, his teeming supporters and army of volunteers in the 326 electoral wards across the state to continue to work hard to ensure that no space is left uncovered in our grassroot mobilization effort.
Also, the Osita Chidoka Campaign expressed confidence that the delegates to the governorship primaries are very dedicated party men and women who are not swayed by sentiments but would vote for a candidate who has shown practical commitment and boldness in protecting and projecting the cause of the UPP and the southeast in general; and who also has that functional and formidable grassroot electoral structure needed to win the November 18, 2017 governorship election.
