The race to clinch the power ticket as the next governor of Anambra State is fast becoming more competitive. With many stories being dished out daily and several parties yet to elect their flag bearers, the tension can only increase. The big question still lies on the lips of most party members, who will we endorse? The All Progressives Congress (APC) is not exempted from this dilemma. With several viable candidates, party members will have a tough time singling out a worthy representative in the general election.
However, the spotlight has been on the Hon Azuka Okwuosa, aka Mr. Let’s Fix Anambra, who has been endorsed by the legendary Biafran war hero Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. The late Ojukwu was known for his bravery, excellent leadership skills, and solid stance for the Igbo community, especially during the Biafran war.

The political parties in Anambra state have begun to gear up as the gubernatorial elections slated for November 2021 draws closer. Strong opposition has begun to rise against the incumbent administration headed by His excellency Chief Willie Obiano of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), IgbereTV reports.
The shortfalls of his second tenure have loosened the party’s grip on the state and possibly the South-East region. The dilapidated security, deteriorating roads, neglected educational system and other anomalies have caused many to write off the current government as clueless and incompetent. Other parties like the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and possibly the Young Progressive Party (YPP) are seeking to take advantage of these strategic loopholes.
