Anambra 2021: Ex- LG Boss Predicts Victory For PDP
As three major political parties – All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) strategise on how to win the 2021 governorship contest in Anambra State, Thompson Chikezie, a one-time PDP chairman of Anambra East Local Government Area, has predicted that his party, the PDP will snatch victory from the APGA-controlled government come the 2021 governorship election.
Chikezie said that the victory will be achieved easily if the party’s leadership will avoid greed, selfishness, personality wrangling, imposition and prioritise the respect for wishes of majority members of the party in the state on choosing whoever that emerges as the PDP flag-bearer during the primaries.
Making this known to newsmen while speaking on affairs of PDP in Nnewi at the weekend, Chikezie, who is currently the secretary and head of administration, Anambra Redemption Movement (ARM), a grassroots voters’ enlightenment movement noted that although public opinion in the state right now favours PDP to win the governorship election come 2021 as majority are yearning for a change from APGA-led administration, he opined that this great opportunity maybe a mirage if the leadership of the party fai to stop the plan to change the existing leadership in the state.
“I am confident that the road is now clear for PDP to reclaim Anambra State from APGA come 2021 governorship election as the people are no longer comfortable with APGA leadership”, he said.
