The Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige
has said that contrary to the voting pattern in 2015
where Anambra voters favoured the Peoples Democratic
party, PDP, with their votes, 2019 would see a clear
departure from such practice.
Ngige said the 2019 presidential election would see
Anambra people voting massively for President
Muhammadu Buhari.
The minister, who was addressing the newly elected
local government executives of the party at Ojoto,
Idemili South local government area of the state, urged
them to get down to work to ensure that Buhari garners
over 70 per cent of votes cast in the state.
He expressed optimism that President Muhammadu
Buhari will be re-elected in the 2019 general elections.
The minister, who hails from the area, said Buhari has
done so well to merit re-election.
He said, “I stand before you today to say Mr President
has done so well in all ramifications. He will be returned
by Nigerians in 2019 in a landslide victory.”
Ngige said the APC would contest all elective positions
in the general elections.
He hailed the party for what he called smooth and
peaceful local government congresses held in the 21
LGAs of the state on Saturday.
He said contrary to what the “prophets of doom” had
expected, the APC in the state had a hitch-free local
government congresses.
Also speaking, National treasurer of the APC, Chief
George Moghalu commended the party for the peaceful
conduct of the LGA congresses in the state.
He said, “I’m very optimistic the same good conduct will
be witnessed during the state congresses”.
