From Ifeoma Ejiofor
The Senator representing Ananbra South Senatorial District in the Senate, Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah has declared his intentions to contest in the 2025 Ananbra State governorship election.
Sen Ubah made the declaration during an interactive session with journalists at his country home in Umuanuka, Otolo Nnewi .
He said that he would do a single term in office to complete the turn of the Anambra South Senatorial District in the spirit of the existing zoning agreement in the state. He said, “I will do only one term if elected in next year’s Anambra governorship poll.”
Senator Ubah, however, promised to conduct local government elections in the state within four months if voted into office as the governor of the state, to spread development to all parts of the state.
He further stressed that four years is enough for any focused governor to take the state to greater heights and make the people happy, as governance is not rocket science.
Senator Ubah said that, as a private person, he has contributed immensely to the transformation of the lives of many people in Anambra State, from various spheres of life, including sports, empowerment, education, commerce employment, as well as overall youth and women empowerment.
He however observed that development under Governor Soludo has slowed, adding that the people’s expectations that the Professor of Economics would take them to the next level have been dashed as the only thing the present administration does is the destruction of the people’s means of livelihood, which he bemoaned as inhumane.
Senator Ubah maintained that his blueprint for the development of the state is passionate to him, and will do everything within his power as a human being to see that it comes to fruition if elected come 2025
“My blueprints for the development of the state are innovative and none of my opponents can match them. If I become governor, Anambra State will be a commercial and health destination in the South-East, and Nigeria in general.”
