HON. IFEANYI UGWUANYI DECLARED ENUGU PDP GOVERNORSHIP FLAGBEARER.
Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi
Wow!!! Reports reaching us has it that the Chairman of House of Representative Committee on Marine Transport, Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, has emerged the Enugu State PDP governorship candidate.
Gburugburu, as he is always called, defeated other aspirants such as Senator Ayogu Eze, Prof. Onyeke A. Onyeke and Speaker, Enugu House of Assembly, Hon. Eugene Odo.
Hon. Ugwuanyi got 933 votes out of the total 963 votes cast beating his main challenger in the race, Speaker Eugene Odo who had 26 votes. However, Senator Eze and Prof. Onyeke did not participate in the primary held at the stadium.
We gathered that the duo of Chief Anayo Onwuegbu and Hon. Chinedu Onu, at the weekend, stepped down for Hon. Ugwuanyi while Chief Dr. Sam Maduka Onyeishi, the founder of Peace Group of Companies, on Monday, withdrew from the race.
Hon. Ugwuanyi's victory seems to have brought to an end the friction between the governor, Sullivan Chime and Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu.
