Anambra state governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo is prioritising governance over his re-election campaign, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has said.
APGA spokesperson, Ejimofor Opara, in a statement said embarking on campaign at the moment would distract the governor, who is focused on governance.
โFirst, as a government, there are deadlines that Governor Soludo has set for himself and everyone on the solution team.
โThus, a campaign at this time would be more of a distraction, and residents will not accept excuses.
โAcross the length and breadth of the state, Soludo is stamping indelible footprints that require consolidation. Nothing will veer him off this track.
โFor the first time in the stateโs known history, residents will be making a decision based on massive evidence of sterling performance, not hearsay.
โSo, for now, Soludo is very busy and APGA encourages him to remain focused. Our vehicle is sound and the road ahead is clear,” the statement reads.
Early this month, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) published the final list of candidates for the Anambra governorship poll.
The electoral umpire said electioneering campaigns in public start from June 11 and end at midnight on November 6.
The governorship election in Anambra has been slated for November 8.
