7 Guber Candidates Step Down For Ohakim by arinzeeze: 5:57pm On Apr 24, 2011 |
7 GUBER CANDIDATES STEP DOWN FOR OHAKIM Ahead of tomorrow's governorship and House of Assembly elections in Imo State, no fewer than seventeen registered political Parties have adopted the State governor, Chief Ikedi Ohakim. Also, no fewer than seven governorship candidates for the election had stepped down for the PDP candidate, Chief Ohakim. This development was made public weekend at Dan Anyiam Stadium, Owerri in a political rally to mark the grand finale of the state chapter of the women wing of PDP, by the state chairman of Conference of Nigerian Political Parties (CNPP). Announcing this before the crowd of PDP supporters in the rally addressed by President Jonathan and his wife, Patience, the CNPP Chairman, Dr Ada Mere paid glowing tribute to the state governor for his landmark achievements in the state, in spite of the barrage of attacks by the oppositions. Presenting a plague as a mark of solidarity of the 17 registered political parties to the governor, the CNPP urged their parties and the entire people of the state to adopt the governor for tomorrow's elections. Dr. Mere said the 17 registered political parties resolved to adopt the governor after realizing the fact that the governor remains the best so far and when compared with his challenges. CNPP therefore called on the people of the state to continue to give him their support for him to continue in his good works in the state. CNPP also called on the leadership of Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN and the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) to join CNPP to adopt the governor and to obey the state chatter of Equity, for the interest of peace and unity in the state. “We should respect this arrangement endorsed by our Council of elders on June 9, 1991, that governorship of the state should rotate among the three geo-political zones of the state, being Owerri, Okigwe and Orlu. |
