Barely one week after the political parties elected their flag bearers for the 2025 governorship election in Anambra State, Oga Ndi Oga Foundation has mounted its force not just for stronger participation at the poll but also to deliver its choice candidate.
Addressing journalists during a meeting with Local Government Area coordinators, the Founder/CEO of the Foundation, High Chief Godwin Agbasimelo stated with optimism that the Foundation will support and deliver a candidate who can buy into the agenda of the Foundation.
The agenda of the Foundation according to him is good governance embedded in rural development, power supply, security, development of business infrastructures, facilities and amenities for job creation and poverty eradication among other things.
Agbasimelo explained that the Foundation which is a force to reckon with in terms of numerical power is poised to join hands with a good candidate to orchestrate a turning point in the governance of Anambra State.
He said that the Foundation has built a massive voting strength to ensure that the candidate endorsed by the Foundation will coast home to victory come November 8.
The Founder , CEO of Oga Ndi Oga Foundation described the November poll as an another opportunity to right the wrong in governance of Anambra State by electing a candidate who is capable to fix things aright and ensure that the people at all levels including rural dwellers are positioned and empowered with infrastructural facilities.
He observed with dismay that Anambra is lagging behind neighbouring State like Delta State in terms of business infrastructures, facilities and amenities noting that a lot of traders and businessmen in Onitsha are relocating to Asaba the Delta State capital owing to the fact that Delta is now conducive to live and do business than Onitsha.
According to him, “Oga Ndi Oga Foundation is after a credible candidate with enough experience in human and economic development and management on one hand. And on the other hand a candidate with a bigger platform that will bring about a fresh breed of things in Anambra State.”
High Chief Agbasimelo maintained that Anambra needs a fresh hand and the Foundation is prepared enough to make it a reality hence the commitment to build a massive voting strength with membership in all the polling booths cross the wards in the state.
He however demanded for a fair, free and credible election from Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) during the Anambra State governorship election come November 8 even as he demanded for a violent free campaigns from candidates.
