RAYMOND OZOJI reports
Ahead the 2027 National Assembly elections, a top ranked Anambra North Senatorial Zone aspirant, Dr Alex Obiogbolu has vowed to end okada and Keke empowerment in the zone.
Dr Obiogbolu, who is the Special Adviser to Gov Charles Soludo on Political Matters said he would rather work very hard at Senate Chamber to bring real empowerment to the teeming youths of the zone.
He made this promise at Otuicha in Anambra East LGA during his consultative meeting with the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) Ward Secretaries, Chairmen and Councilors from Anambra East, Ayamelum and Oyi LGAs.
The Special Adviser to Gov Soludo on Political Matters said as a matter of fact that he would give the people of Anambra North Senatorial Zone, a quality, responsible and responsive representation at the red chamber of the National Assembly.
He said it is really disgraceful that many people who have represented Anambra North Senatorial Zone in the Senate could not think of empowering the hardworking constituents on concrete terms than to give them okada and Keke.
"I will be accessible to you, I promise you quality voice on the floor of the Senate Chamber all of you will be proud of, I will struggle to bring jobs from Abuja for our people, and end the era of insulting our youths with okada and Keke, once and for all.
"I am going to Abuja to bring what belongs to Anambra State to her, for many years, those who went to the Senate on behalf of Anambra North Senatorial zone have not brought anything from Abuja" he said.
Dr Obiogbolu said that it has become imperative for the constituents to know the capacity and antecedents of those aspiring to go to the National Assembly because the red chamber is not for learners.
The Special Adviser to Gov Soludo on Political Matters who has thirty five years experience in politics, recalled how he employed three thousand five hundred and sixty persons when he was the Chairman of Anambra State Local Government Service Commission.
Dr Obiogbolu, a loyal party man who for twenty one years attempted to make PDP work in Anambra State before he later joined APGA said that Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe of Anambra State, Dr Michael Okpara of Abia State and Chief Olushola Saraki of Kwara State as individuals who employed political power for the development of their areas, noting that they are his role models.
Most of the participants who spoke at the occasion declared their support for the candidature of Dr Alex Obiogbolu.
