Anamabra Election; Uba Rejects Outcome.

Sen. Andy Uba, the All Progressives Congress APC Governorship candidate in Anambra state, has rejected the outcome of last Saturday’s Governorship election as declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC, saying, “it is surprising that APGA that lost nearly 80% of its stalwarts through defection to the APC before the election came out ‘victorious.’

“The outcome of the election was a charade and did not reflect the wishes of the people of Anambra State”, said Ambassador Jerry Ugokwe, spokesperson of the Senator Andy Uba Campaign Organization.

“It is inconceivable that our candidate, who polled over 200,000 votes in the APC primary election would be allocated slightly above 43,000 votes by INEC.

“It is surprising that APGA that lost almost 80 per cent of its stalwarts through defection to the APC before the election came out ‘victorious’. A sitting APGA Deputy Governor, seven members of the House of Representatives, 10 members of the Anambra State House of Assembly, the APGA party’s member of Board of Trustees, many serving SA’s, SSA’s, in addition to a serving PDP Senator all defected to the APC very timely before the election, yet APGA emerged ‘victorious’. This is quite ridiculous.”

The development came as INEC disclosed its readiness to present the Certificate of Return to the Governor-elect of the state, Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo of the All Progressives Grand Alliance APGA.
