The All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council in Anambra State has revealed that the party’s flag bearer, Bola Tinubu, will be received on Tuesday, 31st January 2023.
WITHIN NIGERIA reports that the council led by Margery Okadigbo stated in a joint briefing with the APC chairman in the state, Basil Ejidike, that adequate preparation, including proper security, has been put in place to ensure a hitch-free rally on Tuesday in Awka, the capital of Anambra State.
Ejideka noted that;
All arrangements have been made, and of course you can see now that the VIP stand is being decorated, and also the stage is being set up.
Adequate security arrangements have also been made, and we are looking forward to witnessing the mother of all rallies in the state.
We have held a meeting with all the ward chairmen of our party in the state, 356 of them, and they have been mobilized to ensure that members from all wards in the state are brought down here on Tuesday.
We are working hand in hand with the presidential campaign council in Anambra, let by our mummy, Senator Margery Okadigbo, and we hope for up to 100 members of our party from each ward in the state.
You can see that all of us are around to ensure that everything is going well. We have not had any hitches at all. Anambra is the melting pot of Igbo politics, and we are ready to deliver.
The Anambra APC chairman, on the other hand, dismissed a rumored protest by some party youths over the party’s refusal to disburse funds for the running of expenses for the upcoming rally.
He added that;
Those people you mentioned are not our members. Funds have been released to all concerned, including to ward chairmen for the mobilisation of our members. So, the rumours of protest as a result of non-disbursement of funds is not true.
