Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State has accused the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of being responsible for the violence that rocked the state in 2002 during which some public utilities were burnt.
Speaking on Wednesday while addressing members of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) at Dr. Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka, he claimed the PDP plunged Anambra State into confusion and rancour due to its desperation for power.
The Governor noted that it was the timely intervention of the APGA government that restored all that were demolished and destroyed by the PDP in the state.
He said the APGA-led state government, beginning from ex-governor Peter Obi and his own administration, transformed the state such that the state slogan was changed from ‘Home for All’ to ‘Light Of The Nation’.
He therefore urged all APGA supporters and the entire citizenry to support his government by voting massively for all APGA candidates in the forthcoming State House of Assembly elections to enable him to continue to deliver good governance and democracy dividends to the people of Anambra.
He however made a passionate appeal to party members to shun anti-party activities to enable APGA win all the 30 state assembly seats in order to sustain and strengthen the harmonious working relationship between the executive and legislative arms of government in Anambra.
