“We are not here to criticize anybody. The  Governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomole has done well by developing the state but we need somebody that can continue from where he has stopped. This gentleman will continue the good work the Comrade Governor has done”, he said.

The Executive Governor of Anambra State further  appealled to  the governorship candidate to aways uphold the tenets of the party which respect the traditional institution, accommodate new members into the party and be tax friendliness.

Also speaking at the rally which was largely dominated by the party’s supporters from the Eastern States, was Mr. Victor Umeh. Mr. Umeh said Mr. Osaro Onaiwu has come to do all the works left undone by this  present administration noting that he is the only solution to all the infrastructural and socio-economical problems facing the state.

Umeh said they all came from the Eastern States in solidarity with the governorship candidate of the party which must be delivered on September 10.

Umeh noted that APGA as a party, is the third largest party in Nigeria and that when there are  crises in other parties across the states, the party has been exonerated from such pointing that the party is what the country needs at the moment.

On the part of the national secretary of the party, Mr. Labaran Maku, he said there is no one solutions to the problems of the state but believed that the governorship candidate of the party is part of the solution adding that Mr. Osaro Onaiwu would replicate the massive developments experienced in Anambra State in Edo State just as he noted that Anambra State is the only state that is not indebted to any of the banks amongst other states but has done well in the development of the state.

Mr. Maku further charged the youths to vote for the party’s candidate and defend their votes.

The Governorship Candidate, Mr. Osaro Onaiwu, while delivering his seven points agenda before his teeming supporters, he  told them that his government will be all encompassing noting that pensioners, youths, market women would be adequately catered for.

Mr. Onaiwu said his purpose as a governor, is to wipe off the long tears from their faces.

“I will pay pensioners their arrears as at when due. Because I know the important of a mother, I have chosen a woman as my deputy when others have decided to marginalize their women”, he said
