Action Congress (AC) candidate in the February 6, 2010 governorship election in Anambra State, Dr Chris Ngige, has advised his All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) counterpart, Governor Peter Obi, to desist from hiding under the cover of Dim Chukwuemeka Odimegwu-Ojukwu to prosecute his campaign for the election, but to come out as an individual to make a statement so that he can be assessed on his merit.
Awka - Action Congress (AC) candidate in the February 6, 2010 governorship election in Anambra State, Dr Chris Ngige, has advised his All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) counterpart, Governor Peter Obi, to desist from hiding under the cover of Dim Chukwuemeka Odimegwu-Ojukwu to prosecute his campaign for the election, but to come out as an individual to make a statement so that he can be assessed on his merit.
Speaking at his campaign headquarters in Awka, the state capital, while receiving members of Peoples Progressive Alliance (PPA) and APGA who, at the weekend, defected from their parties to AC, Ngige noted that Obi's continued attachment to Ojukwu's shadow in his bid to gain relevance and earn his way to peoples' heart would not make up for his deficiencies , especially in governance.
"Peter Obi by wearing clothes with Ojukwu's picture on it will not win election for him. It is like a student who does not know mathematics wearing clothes with the picture of late Professor Chike Obi and hope to pass mathematics in an examination. If you don't know mathematics, you don't know it," he said.
The former governor in the company of AC State chairman, Mr Ndubuisi Nwobu, received the defectors led by Messrs Okolie Paulinus and Anthony Ugbaja . Ugbaja was a former chairman of Committee of Local Government Council Chairmen in the state.
Ngige told the defectors that he was encouraged by the bold steps taken by them to leave their parties on time for AC, pointing out that AC remains the party to beast during the election because it has credibility and parades the best candidate.
