He emphasized that winning the by-election would demonstrate the APC’s readiness and capability to contest and win the governorship seat in 2025.Okwuosa said: “If you check today Anambra is a state where we have multiparty relationships among APC, PDP, APGA and Labour Party. Today we see like in the present senatorial by-election which was occupied by an APC senator, late Senator Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah. So, we have no reason not to recapture that seat because presently, out of the three senatorial seats in Anambra, LP has two and you know that LP will like to have all three seats, which is quite impossible in Anambra state.
“And I’m also aware that the governor coming from the same South senatorial district as the late Ifeanyi Ubah, will like to do everything humanly possible to see whether APGA will capture the seat.
“But today, I can assure you that the work which the late senator did and with the major incursion of APC in Anambra state, we have no choice other than to retake that seat. Anything short of that will not be acceptable to us. It’s a precursor to the governorship election. We need to get it right to show our capacity and to show our willingness to go for the governorship seat.“This by-election will take place on or before February which is just less than two months away. So, we’re going into that election with every sense of purpose and commitment because the success of that senatorial by-election will show our capacity and our enablement to go for the main governorship election later this year”. ...CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE➤
