Former Governor of Abia state, Chief Orji Uzor Kalu and one of the 8 man executive committee appointed by the All Peoples Congress, APC, South East Zone, to oversee the Governorship preparations of the Party in the forthcoming Governorship election in Anambra State, has called on Governor Willy Obiano to decamp from the All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA and join APC if he harbours any desire of retaining his position as Governor of the state.
Kalu who recently decamped to the ruling APC from the opposition PDP spoke at Awka, the capital of Anambra state while addressing Party Executives. He told the party faithful’s that even though Obiano has underperformed, the Party will be willing to welcome him into the fold.
Kalu said, “Obiano is our friend but his administration is not good for Ndi Anambra; so we are going to remove him. If he wants, let him come over to APC but if not, we are taking over the state.
“Those of you who know your governor should tell him that there is still chance for him to come in before we close the doors of the party next month.”
Governor Willy Obiano is seeking for a second term under the platform of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the election scheduled for later in the year.
Efforts made to get Obiano’s media aid to respond to Kalu’s overtures was unsuccessful.
