Abuja, Nigeria – President Bola Ahmed Tinubu yesterday unequivocally threw his weight behind the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for Anambra State, Prince Dr. Nicholas Ukachukwu, and his running mate, Senator Dr. Uche Ekwunife, vowing his full support in their quest to reclaim the state for the ruling party.
During a vibrant flag presentation ceremony at the Presidential Villa, President Tinubu, in a clear declaration of intent, charged the duo with the mandate to deliver Anambra State. “Go and get me Anambra, you have my full support,” the President reportedly declared, emphasizing the significance of the upcoming gubernatorial election for the APC’s national standing.
The high-profile endorsement underscores the APC’s strategic focus on expanding its political footprint across the South-East region. Prince Dr. Nicholas Ukachukwu, a prominent businessman and politician with a history of vying for the Anambra governorship, was presented with the party’s flag alongside Senator Dr. Uche Ekwunife, a seasoned politician who has represented Anambra Central Senatorial District. Their joint visit to the State House in Abuja solidified their position as the torchbearers of the APC’s ambition in the state.
