*Carpets Abure, others for abandoning kidnapped governorship candidate

By Toby Chuks

Again, the founder/CEO of the popular mass movement group in Anambra State known as Oga Ndi Oga Foundation High Chief Godwin Agbasimelo has raised more reasons why former governor of Anambra State and Presidential candidate of Labour Party in 2023 general elections, Mr Peter Obi is still holding the ace as the outstanding choice for Nigeria’s top leadership seat at Aso Rock village in Abuja the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

Speaking to journalists at Ezinifite in Nnewi South Local Government Area of Anambra State when former Governor Obi paid a condolence visit to the family of late Emmanuel Agbasimelo who was the father of the kidnapped Labour Party governorship candidate in 2021 governorship election in Anambra State Mr Obiora Agbasimelo, the Oga Ndi Oga boss explained that Peter Obi remains the best choice for President of Nigeria because he doesn’t just have the interest of the people but also understands the burden of people and knows how to solve them.

Hear him “I have always said it and I will continue to say it that Peter Obi is the best choice for President as far as Nigeria is concerned because he possess the quality of a good leader we need to address the challenges facing Nigeria. What I am saying is that he has the interest of people at heart and more interesting is that he is available to make sacrifice for the people. Today he has sacrificed time beating his tight schedules to visit Ezinifite because he has the interest of Agbasimelo family. I am sure his kind of person will certainly address the challenges facing Nigeria if given the mandate to be President”

He described the condolence visit to the family of late Emmanuel Agbasimelo by the 2023 Presidential candidate of Labour Party as a mark of love to the people noting that his visit to condole and sympathize with the family of the kidnapped governorship candidate of Labour Party at a time when the leadership of Labour Party at the national level abandoned a governorship candidate of the Party who is in captivity of kidnappers was hugely appreciated by the family in particular and Oga Ndi Oga foundation in general.

He carpeted the national Chairman of Labour Party Chief Julius Abure along with Clement Ojuwwu and all members of the national executive of Labour Party for abandoning a governorship candidate of the Party who was kidnapped at the peak of election campaign during the last governorship election in Anambra State in 2021.

While repeatedly appreciating the visit of ex Governor Obi he added “I am sure that you can recall that Mr Obiora Agbasimelo as the governorship candidate of Labour Party was kidnapped while on campaign for the 2021 governorship election in Anambra State and still missing till today, but the national leadership of Labour Party under Julius Abure and his executive abandoned him completely and did nothing over it till today. Not even paying a visit to Obiora family. Is that how to do politics. That’s very unfair attitude on the side of Abure and his executive. I am sure that Anambra would have been Abure’s second home if Obiora had won the election”

*Enugu Politics: Emerging Facts Affirm Prof. Akubue Augustine Uchenna as the Authentic Chairman of ADC in Enugu State* As the discerning citizens of Enugu State anticipate the strategic activities of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) ahead of the 2027 general elections, irrefutable facts have now emerged detailing how *Professor Akubue Augustine Uchenna* was duly elected by consensus as the authentic State Chairman of ADC in Enugu, the Coal City State. Investigations conducted by our correspondents in Enugu reveal that Professor Akubue’s emergence was the product of a meticulous, all-inclusive, and constitutionally grounded process. Far from being arbitrary, his ascendancy reflects the collective will of the party’s apex leadership at both national and state levels, who, in a rare display of unanimity, entrusted him with the mandate to pilot the affairs of the Enugu State chapter. Foremost among these facts is that the Congress Committee, chaired by the erudite *Dr. C.C. Okeke*, a former distinguished member of the Federal House of Representatives, which conducted the Enugu State Congress, was properly constituted and duly appointed by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party. The procedural integrity of the congress is therefore beyond reproach. Furthermore, the consensus that produced *Professor Akubue Augustine Uchenna* enjoyed the imprimatur of the foremost political luminaries across the three senatorial districts of the state. These include the venerable *former Governor Okwesilieze Nwodo* for Enugu North Senatorial District, the globally acclaimed scholar and former Minister of Power, *Professor Barth Nnaji*, for Enugu East Senatorial District, and the respected technocrat *Mr. John Nwokeabia* for Enugu West Senatorial District. Their collective endorsement underscores the pan-Enugu legitimacy of his chairmanship. Equally instructive is the fact that other eminent chieftains and stakeholders of ADC in Enugu State, including an ex member of the Federal House of Representatives *Amb Fidel Ayogu* who is a member of the ADC National Working Committee (NWC) and leading gubernatorial aspirants for the 2027 elections under the ADC platform such as *Sir Chinyeaka Ohaa*, a seasoned administrator and former Federal Permanent Secretary, *Senator Gil Nnaji*, a ranking parliamentarian of national repute were integral to the consensus that affirmed Professor Akubue as the authentic State Chairman. A senior chieftain of the party and former Special Adviser to the Governor of Enugu State, Hon. Kentus Eze who is also a member of ADC National Convention Committee disclosed to our correspondent that party leaders and stakeholders convened an emergency harmonization meeting shortly after the State Congress to consolidate the leadership structure under Professor Akubue. He noted that Akubue was duly elected by the legitimate custodians of the party’s mandate in Enugu State, adding “For me, the message is congratulations to Akubue led State Exco and to all members of ADC in Enugu State for having a hitch free Congress. I believe that all members of the party will join hands with the Akubue ledae Exco of the party because we are all aiming at one goal” With his formidable pedigree as a scholar of international repute, a consummate administrator, and a consensus-builder with gravitas across political, intellectual, and civic circles, *Professor Akubue Augustine Uchenna* brings to the ADC in Enugu State a rare confluence of academic distinction, strategic foresight, and principled leadership. His chairmanship heralds a new epoch of intellectual rigor, organizational coherence, and elite political engagement for the party as it positions itself for the 2027 electoral contest.
