A former National Chairman of the
All Progressives Grand Alliance, (APGA) Victor Umeh has slammed the All
Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman, John Odigie-Oyegun over his
comment on the forthcoming election in Anambra.
The APC national chairman was
quoted as boasting that his party must take over Anambra State in the
November 18 poll.
Umeh described Oyegun’s comment
as reckless, inflammatory, intimidating and undemocratic.
Addressing reporters as part of
activities for the flag off of Governor Willie Obiano’s re-election campaign,
Umeh noted that such a statement was capable of heating the polity, calling on
the people of the state to be vigilant and prepare against any evil plot that
would aim to subvert their decision on the poll.
He said: “This is not a civilized
language. It is not a democratic language and we don’t want to go into the
election with such inflammatory language and that statement by Oyegun was an
intimidating language.
“On our part, we are going into
the election with Obiano’s achievements in the three years and six months he
has been governor and going by what APGA has done in the past 11 years in
Anambra State.
“Some people have been jumping
from place to place saying that Obiano has not done anything and we have chronicled
all his achievements. I want to assert without any fear of contradiction that
this government has discharged its duties diligently.”
