365Daily – As the race for November 6 Anambra governorship election gets hotter, wife of late Chief Chuba Okadigbo, former president of the senate, Senator Margery Okadigbo has shown her support for one of the leading aspirants, Senator Andy Uba of the All Progressives Congress (APC), calling on the political party to give him chance to fly their flag.
The former lawmaker who represented Anambra North in the seventh senate made her position known at the inauguration of Senator Andy Uba’s Campaign Council in Ogbunike, Oyi Local Government Area of Anambra on Tuesday.
She maintained that Uba was the best among those contesting for the ticket of the APC based on his experience in public service and capacity to win the election for the party.
Okadigbo said Uba’s candidacy would increase chances of APC victory on November 6, by 50 per cent, because of his goodwill and wide acceptability across Anambra.
The senator had addressed no fewer than 400 party representatives from the 15 electoral wards in Oyi LGA.
She said that the campaign council was to mobilise supporters in the area and others parts of north senatorial district ahead of the APC primaries.
“We the people of Oyi have come together to chat our political course by endorsing the aspiration of Uba.
“His support base here is massive and I can testify that having worked in the senate, he has the capability to bring good governance.
“We have security challenges in Anambra, infrastructural deficit, and Uba is the best man to fix them,” she said.
