Ngige Wants To Return As Anambra's Governor

Senator Chris Ngige, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives' Congress (APC) party, has has grounded his decision to bid for the governorship position in the state of Anambra. 

 

Speaking yesterday, October 14, Monday, during his meeting with the Anambra Peoples Assembly in Enugu, he said although he left the Government House abruptly, with most of his aspirations unfufilled, he would dust the blueprint to rebuild the state.

Previously, his eight-year blueprint to develop the state was jettisoned by Governor Peter Obi, with most strategic projects left undone.

Service to the people of Anambra is dear to his heart, he confessed.

"I forgot my work plan at the Government House, and that's what I want to go back and collect," Ngige said, adding he injected the people's money into service, paid teachers and pensioners.

Security had to be restored just as unfettered freedom of movement, equity and fairness, Ngige said, pledging to give free maternal health service and free malaria treatment.

The APC candidate assured that he would prevent rigging, promising to transform Awka, the state capital, through urban renewal.

He said he would ensure that Anambra airport was built for take off before next December, and promised to make education free.

"We revolutionised road construction. It's not true that we did asphalt only in Idemili, we also did roads in every other part of the state. The present government has collected over N2trillon, with nothing to show for it. I met only N38 in the purse, but left N12. 8 billion in the coffers."
