Frontline politician and former PDP House of Representatives candidate in 2019, Chima Desmond Anyaso has congratulated the newly elected governorship candidate of the PDP in the forthcoming Anambra Gubernatorial election, Valentine Chineto Ozigbo, on clinching the party’s ticket ahead of the crucial election. Anyaso said that Ozigbo’s passion and desire for the development, betterment, and economic progress of Anambra state is evident in his victory at the just concluded party primaries.
He called on all PDP stakeholders and party stalwarts to close ranks and not allow a divided house so that the party will emerge victorious in November when the main election is held. Anyaso pleaded with other contenders to join hands and deliver the party’s well-deserved electoral victory come November 2021.
Anyaso said “our party, PDP is proud to have a brilliant candidate for the next Anambra election. Valentine Ozigbo is a people person and very knowledgeable, so his victory did not come to many as a surprise because he has demonstrated through his early campaign activities that he has the passion to serve his people.
