Victor Umeh, chieftain of the All Progressives Grand
Alliance (APGA), says the people of Anambra chose Chukwuma Soludo,
governor-elect, and not Andy Uba, governorship candidate of the All
Progressives Congress (APC).
Umeh made comments on Sunday following Uba’s threat of
challenging Soludo’s victory in court.
Uba said his mandate given to him by the Anambra people was
“stolen”.
Soludo, governorship candidate of APGA, defeated Valentine
Ozigbo, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, and Uba during the poll
that was held on November 6.
Speaking with journalists in Anambra, Umeh said the outcome
of the election is a reflection of what the people wanted.
He said Anambra is not a Imo state where a fourth contender
in an election became governor through the court.
“The election took place in all the 21 local government
areas in the state and he didn’t win any council area, so what is he going to
court for,” he said.
“The outcome of the
election was a true reflection of what Anambra people want. The Anambra people
didn’t give Andy Uba any mandate. They wanted Soludo, and they voted for him
massively.
“We are used to such cases. I have been in Politics for more
than 20-years now, so APGA is not afraid of going to Court with Andy Uba.
Nothing will make Anambra people to vote for a party that has nothing to offer.
“Nigeria Judiciary is not an undertaker. Please tell him, we
are waiting for him in the Court. Anambra is not Imo State, where a fourth
candidate in election suddenly became a governor.”
