One Week After The Grand Plot Failed
This is ONE WEEK after a grand scheme to topple APGA failed woefully. Any and every other analysis is simply statement after the fact.
This time one week ago the allied forces, after they had launched intense attacks against APGA and her candidates, particularly in Onitsha North 1 constituency, FAILED to secure even 10% of the total votes cast in both the elections in Onitsha and Anambra South.
Certainly, expectation is the mother of disappointment. In the last one week they have busied themselves with allegations plus counter-allegations trying to rationalize their colossal defeat by APGA.
Some have attributed the unprecedented victory of APGA to “vote buying”. While some others have launched an offensive against the Agunechemba and operation Udo Ga Achi, not minding that security is everyone’s business and must not be politicized. For Ukachukwu and his band of frustrated APC journeymen, truncating his planned thuggery and violence for the Anambra South election was unacceptable. He couldn’t imagine how anyone could stop him from electoral malpractices even in his Osumenyi hometown. Fortunately, it happened and he has continued to go from one press conference to another crying profusely.
The ADC, who were caught pants down with already thumb printed ballot papers in Aguata, the only way to explain to their online members how they could only secure 2% of total votes cast is to peddle false narratives and act like the defeat of Saturday meant nothing!
Anambra is APGA Land! I just want to remind all who have become emergency political philosophers that APGA’s record of grassroot dominance is still one they wish to have. The last time we checked, the record of any party in the entire country REJECTING vote buying is still with the Ukwulu Woman in 2021 who is an unrepentant member of APGA. If this has changed, then all those who allege must prove!
