From Chuks Collins, Awka
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party(LP) in the?Saturday, Nov 16?governorship election in Anambra state, Dr Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah has urged the citizens of Anambra state, particularly the electorates to shun any form of electoral malpractice.
In a statement issued in Awka yesterday, the governorship flag bearer and the national chairman of the party, chief Dan Nwanyanwu appealed to the potential voters to come out peacefully en masse and vote for Dr Ubah by thumb printing in the logo of the LP where a man and his family was shown.Ubah said he was unavoidably absent at the Independent National Electoral Commission(INEC)/security agencies forum chaired and addressed by Prof Attahiru Jega and the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar, due to other electioneering engagements. but expressed joy that both his state and national chairmen were in attendance.
He restated his earlier call on the citizens to resist any form of malpractice, but to vote their conscience for LP on?Saturday, Nov 16.
Ubah noted that he remains the only candidate without any godfather apart from The Lord God Almighty, hence out to transform the state, her people and all the infrastructure, social services and facilities.
Nwanyanwu had in his remarks at the Stakeholders forum solicited the peaceful cooperation of the All Progressives Congress, APC and the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA and other ‘big’ parties so as to achieve a smooth free and fair election that would be the envy of all.
He noted that Ubah has both the experience and vigor needed to transform the state. He said that LP is not known for malpractice.
Ubah said it was laughable that the recent public debates were able to unmask most of the candidates, especially those who cannot name three staple farm produce innhenstate.
