In his words, “my message to Anambra people is peace and advancement, whoever that becomes the governor starting from March 17th, 2022 should make the state better than he would be meeting it. We have credible candidates vying in the governorship election from different political parties who have the ability and capacity to move the state forward.

The traditional ruler who noted that Anambra State has been lucky to have credible and progressive governors from 2003, pointed out that the uncertainties surrounding the November 6 guber polls have to do partly with insecurity and also with the plethora of protracted litigations in major political parties.

He also appealed to the youths to desist from violence and support peaceful conduct of the election.
