SENATOR (DR) ANDY UBA WINS PRESTIGIOUS PDP ANAMBRA GUBERNATORIAL PARTY TICKET WITH OVERWHELMING 645 TO
EMMA ANOSIKE’S 110 VOTES
*But Shame on Nigeria’s
Nascent Democracy as factional group announce another candidate in parallel
primaries
*PDP must get her act
together
*Governor Shema, Dankwambo
(election supervisors) must clear the air or risk attack on PDP integrity
EXCLUSIVE ANALYSES BY CHIEF CERUTTI OSAGIE
Still
basking in the wild euphoria that greeted his ten pint strong letter of protest
to Lagos state Governor, Babatunde Fashola (SAN) where he stoutly defended the
constitutional right of his Igbo people, Senator (Dr) Andy Uba OFR is in the
news again
This time
not a means of another protest run, but rather a first step toward actualizing
his dream of emerging as the next Governor of the giant of eastern state,
Anambra
It will be recall that not so long ago, the
Senator exclusively told CERUTTI MEDIA GROUP political unit via telephone that:
‘’ I have a contract with the people of Anambra state, they voted me in 2007
and I pledged then that I will transform the state infrastructural, on that vow
I still maintain, it is a contract between me and my people, they know who they
want as leader, and the leader know them’’ was The Senators reaction to us
Now as faith
will have it, only last night, Senator Uba successfully emerged as the peoples
candidate to carry the prestigious PDP ticket in the 2014 gubernatorial race,
already globally rated as expected to be one of the most feisty contested
political battle
In the
keenly contested primaries, that featured several heavyweight political
juggernauts, Senator Uba, the former presidential domestic adviser, polled 654
votes with a large margin distance of second place Prince Emma Anosike who got
110 votes, the third place went to Jerry Ugwoke with 86 votes, Patrick Ugbomah
89;Mike Okoye 17 votes and MRS Josephine Anenih 3 votes, Walter Okeke 2 votes
and Tony Nwoye 1 votes
These result
was announced by no less a personality than the NATIONALLY ASSIGNED Returning
officer, Dr KENNETH Eremuoh and supervised by a delegation from headquarters
led by Governor Ibrahim Shema of Katsina state, and his Gombe counterpart,
Alhaji Dankwabo alongside Senator Ndoma Egba
Now with
such a crack team of electioneering monitoring committee made of such stern Governors,
why must PDP allow media reports to filter this morning that former student
leader prince Tony Nwoye is also a factional winner in a different primaries,
after a lot of financial and human resources have been expanded in the originally
accredited primaries that Dr Uba won?
This is most
pathetic and political watchers and the part hierarchy must put their act
together, this is slap to our nascent democracy, the factional primaries must
be discarded and astute Politian like Governor Shema and Dankwabo both of who
had a very crucial meeting with the Anambra Commissioner of Police, Balla
Nassarawa, before the major primaries, must speak up that it is only one
primary that is recognized and that is the ONE the national body ordered them
to come and monitor
Meanwhile
with the emergence of Senator Uba as PDP primaries winner, it is no doubt a
wakeup call that Igbos as a whole, especially of Anambra state to come under
one umbrella to support senator Uba aspiration
According to
vast majority of people spoke to, Uba remains a most charismatic leader that is
often want to fight his people case and war, with his strong international
clout and dream to industrialize the state, no doubt the people of the state
now have their destiny in their hands
