The Media Office for the former lawmaker who represented Nnewi North, Nnewi South and Ekwusigo in the green chamber of the National Assembly, Hon Chris Azubogu has declared emphatically that their principal will contest the impending Anambra South senatorial election.
Recall that Hon Chris Azubogu was the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) candidate in the 2023 election which was won by Sen Ifeanyi Ubah of Young Progressives Party (YPP).
The position of the former lawmaker was contained in a press statement and read this, “It has come to the notice of the Azubogu Media Office that some people are going about trying to mislead our teeming and ever enthusiastic supporters by insinuating that #MrPROJECT, Hon. Engr. Chris Emeka Azubogu is no longer interested in contesting the impending Anambra South Senatorial Bye-election, which both INEC and our great party, APGA are yet to release a time table nor guidelines for.
“Accordingly, the Media Office wishes to use this medium to clarify in emphatic terms that Engr. Azubogu, the APGA Senatorial Candidate for the 2023 Anambra South Senatorial Election, sees the impending bye-election as an extension of the 2023 exercise and shall, by the special grace of God, contest the election once INEC and our great party, APGA, releases a time table for the exercise.
“In the interim, because so much accrues from experience and a deep knowledge of the dynamics surrounding distinctive election contests, what MR. PROJECT will not do is to join the bandwagon of those who have jumped the gun to commence public campaign for an election which time table is yet to be issued by the relevant bodies.
“Lastly, the Media Office profoundly thanks a clear preponderance of Ndi Anambra South electorate who have been patiently waiting and yearning to support the tested and trusted Legislator (whose capacity to deliver as a legislator has been amply demonstrated during his stay in the House of Representatives) to contest the vacant seat.
“The office further assures them that their unwavering confidence in his ability to best represent the wider interest of the Zone will not be taken for granted.”
