President Muhammadu Buhari has promised to follow up on the campaign and hopeful victory of Senator Andy Uba, the Anambra State gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming November 6 election.
“I am happy to formally welcome you. I certainly wish you the best of luck. I’m anxious for your success, and will closely follow”, he told Uba on Tuesday at State House, Abuja.
This was when he formally received the candidate and some senior members of the party coordinating Uba’s campaign.
He was accompanied to the event by the Chairman, Caretaker and Convention Planning Committee of the party and Governor of Yobe State, Mai Mala Buni, Governors Gboyega Oyetola of Osun, Yahaya Bello of Kogi, Hope Uzodinma of Imo, who is also Chairman, Campaign Council, Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos, Boss Mustapha, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, and George Akume, Minister for Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs.
Governor Mai Mala Buni said APC had been daily receiving new entrants from Anambra State, citing the recent decamping of Senators Stella Oduah and Joy Emodi, adding that “Anambra is ripe for us, and we will work together for victory.”
In his remarks, Gov Uzodinma, as Chairman of the Campaign Council, assured the President that the message of the Party would be taken to the people of Anambra, “which will translate to victory for us in November.”
He also thanked the President for making the job easier, “because of the integrity and honour you have in Nigeria. Your name opens doors for us, and lots of people come into our party today because of it”.
“By the grace of God, we will be successful,” Uzodinma concluded.
