The Senator Representing Anambra South, and state coordinator, President Muhammadu Buhari Campaign Council, Andy Uba, has promised President Buhari a landslide victory in Anambra State, in the Febuary 16 Presidential election.
The lawmaker made the promise when he met with the leadership of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in his Uga ward one, Aguata local government area of Anambra State.
The meeting was to intimate the party leadership of the task ahead, which is delivering President Buhari in the state.
Uba said his reason for beginning his campaign in the ward was to fulfil the saying that charity begins at home.
He further assured that he would use his position to mobilise voters from the state to vote for himself as the senator representing Anambra South and most importantly for president Buhari who he adjudged as performing very excellently.
He said, “There are a lot of things that the President is doing that the people do not know about, but what we are going to do is to take those good works to the rural people of Anambra and ensure that they assimilate this, and use it to see reasons why they should vote the president.
“There are projects like the Zik’s Mausoleum that have been abandoned for several years, but now constructed by the Buhari administration, there is the second Niger bridge which is still on going and seriously too, and there is also the Enugu-Onitsha expressway.
“There are several more projects and our job is to tell the people of them and mobilise them to vote for our able president.â€
The Senator said if Igbos voted Buhari in the coming election, he was sure that the senate presidency would come from the south east, especially as the people were also ready to vote senators from the zone on the platform of APC.
“You need to have people who are ranking senators from the zone who can be made the Senate President. I am vying for a seat in the senate for the third time, and that among other things qualify me to be a ranking senator, who would be qualified to be a senate president.
“To be a senate president, you have to be a ranking senator, and you have to have been in the senate for at least eight years and must have a number of bills you have sponsored. So Igbos must vote wisely in their choice of senators,†Uba said.
