Yul Edochie has said Willie
Obiano “really humiliated” other candidates in the recently held Anambra
governorship poll.
Edochie was the Democratic
Peoples Congress (DPC) candidate in the election.
Obiano won in all the 21 local
government areas of the state. 36 candidates contested the gubernatorial poll which
took place on November 18.
Edochie spoke on the election
result during the inauguration of the executive council of the National
Association of Nigerian Students, Zone B, on Monday.
“Governor Willie Obiano really
humiliated us. He dealt with all of us because I know that it is not easy for a
candidate to win in all the 21 local government areas in a state like Anambra,”
Vanguard quoted him as saying.
“So, we congratulate him and now
that the election is over, what remains is for us to support him and his
government.
“But I did not lose the election
per se. I am fulfilled that we represented the voice of the youths in Anambra
State. We won the election by getting to the end of the election without
surrendering to anybody against all odds and pressure.
“I am calling on all of us to
support the winner to ensure that the next four years will be better for the
entire Anambra people.”
Edochie who secured a total of
145 votes added that “I did not lose the election, I contested to give Nigerian
youths a voice”.
