The South East Organizing Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Mr Dozie Ikedife (jnr), has said that the party the most active political party in Nigeria in every ramification.
Speaking with journalists at his residence, he insisted that the APC had the most vibrant governorship aspirants that could win the election in 2025 despite power of incumbency.
He disclosed that while Senator Ifeanyi Ubah was alive, that he (Ikedife) was actively campaigning for him to win the nomination of APC for governorship.
He mentioned Sir Paul Chukwuma as another APC chieftain that had shown his seriousness and capability to win the November 2025 governorship election in Anambra.
“Since the demise of Sen Ubah, Paul Chukwuma had been all over the state, sensitizing and seeking nomination in the party and support of APC members.
“There are also other contenders who have not actively started campaigning,” he said.
He revealed that APC had active contenders who could actively contend for the governorship position to win the incumbent.
Ikedife said that the APC had been working harder than the other contenders, adding that the key to winning any election was to make sure you produce a popular standard bearer to fly the flag of the party.
“That was what APC has done in the state where we have won the election, “he added.
He said APC had developed a winning formula revealing that they used the winning formula in Edo and Ondo. He disclosed that the party would use the winning formula in any election in Anambra State including 2025 governorship election in the State.
“APC starts election earlier than other political parties.We identify the strong politicians in the polling units, and begin to canvass for votes in the polling units because elections are conducted in the polling units.
“My prayer is that I don”t want the opposition parties to be sleeping, I want them to wake up and be active and to actively seek to win election just like APC is doing, “he added.
Speaking on security, Ikedife (Jnr) said there was no magic to fix the security situation in Anambra State. He disclosed that any serious governor who desired to fix security situation in the state could actually do it.
“You ask yourself what Governor of Enugu State is doing that Anambra State is not doing, what Ebonyi State Governor is doing, what Abia State Governor is doing that Anambra State is not doing and Imo State too.
“The truth of the matter is that we have a governor who doesn’t care about the lives and property of its citizens that is why the security situation in Anambra State has deteriorated so badly.
“APC is going to bring on board a governor who will tackle the bad security situation in Anambra State in 100 days,” he assured.
