In a press conference in Awka on Wednesday, the Director, Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council in Anambra State, Dr Obiora Okonkwo, said that the presidential campaign kick off in Awka on Thursday will prove that Anambra was a PDP state.
Okonkwo, flanked by the chairman of the council, Chief Ben Obi, said that upon arrival in Awka, Atiku and his team will pay a visit to the state governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo at the Government House, Awka.
He said after the parley with the governor, the presidential candidate will further have an interactive session with traditional rulers, led by the chairman, South East Traditional Rulers Council, and traditional ruler of Onitsha, Obi Alfred Nnaemeka Achebe, at the same government house in Awka.
He also revealed that a special team has been put in place and is working to resolve the rift between their candidate and the G5 governors.
Okonkwo said efforts were on to reconcile Atiku with the G5 governors, and that the Anambra State was also poised to give Atiku total victory in the 2023 election.
According to him, the PDP flag bearer would further commission the presidential campaign office at the Kwata Junction in Awka; from where he would proceed to Senator Uche Ekwunife Event Center for an interactive session with stakeholders from across the state; adding that the visit would be wrapped up with the campaign flag-off at the Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka.
