Chief Ndubuisi Nwobu, has assured transparent primaries for the 2021
governorship election.
Nwobu made this known at the PDP South East Interactive/Stakeholders’
meetings with the theme: “Putting Anambra State Back into the Political
Track of the South East” in Awka on Sunday.
He said the party under his watch will conduct credible primaries to
select the best candidate for the 2021 governorship election in the
state.
“I want primaries that will be transparent, free, fair and pleasing to
every aspirant. We need transparent primaries so that any person that
wins, other will key behind the candidate. Time has gone when individual
claims ownership of the party. Today, PDP belong to everybody.
“Under my watch, the party will not be opened to merchandising, where
the highest bidder wins primaries,” he said.
According to him, PDP can only get back to the State House in 2021, if
the primaries are conducted credibly and transparently.
He said the feat accomplished by PDP in 1999 must be replicated in 2021,
as the party is re-strategizing to win the state.
“Today, PDP has more members in the Senate, more members in House
Representatives and had made much inroads in the state’s House of
Assembly,” he said.
He called on every party member to be faithful to party in one spirit
towards winning the state.
