The vice-presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ifeanyi Okowa, has bragged that his party will defeat the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 election in Anambra State.
Okowa spoke to journalists in Onitsha, where he attended the 20th coronation anniversary of the Obi of Onitsha, Nnaemeka Achebe.
Anambra is ruled by a APGA-led government while the Labour Party’s Peter Obi is a former governor of the state.
The Delta governor was represented by the leader of the PDP’s presidential campaign council in Anambra, Prof. Obiora Okonkwo, who is also the Chairman of United Nigeria Airlines.
Okonkwo said the PDP would not only win Anambra but also the main election because the party’s presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, had built bridges of friendship across the country.
In his words, “PDP is fully prepared for the campaign. Anambra has always been the home of PDP, and you may wish to check it. In the past, we have won by landslide in all the presidential elections, and almost all the time, we have won majority of the national assembly elections, and I do not think this will be different.
“The campaign committee is coming up to Anambra, and we will campaign in every corner of Anambra State, starting from every voter, every polling booth, every ward and every local government.
“I have no doubt that at the end of the day, Anambra people will know that we need to be reconnected to Abuja, and the only wire that will give us that connection to the political grid is PDP”, Okonkwo stated.
