Stakeholders task gov on fairness over Anambra South Senate seat

Stakeholders from Anambra South Senatorial District have tasked the governor, Chukwuma Soludo, to ensure equity and fairness in the distribution of political positions in the state.

They also tasked him on the even distribution of legislative and other elective positions in the state, to stem the feeling of alienation and complaints of marginalisation by some communities in the state.

Chairman of the unaligned stakeholders of Anambra, Chief Nnodim Ewelukwa, disclosed this at a press briefing, yesterday, in Abuja, saying that the only way Soludo would build peace and unity, especially in Anambra South Senatorial zone, where he hails from, is to ensure fairness and equity.

Ewelukwa disclosed that the current struggle in All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), as it pertains to Anambra South Senatorial zone, presents a huge test for Soludo’s sense of justice, fairness and equity.

He remarked that a situation whereby a person from the same Old Aguata Union (OAU) as the governor, contesting for the senate seat, does not augur well for the power rotation arrangement in senatorial zone.

Ewelukwa expressed dismay that after representing the zone in the Senate for 12 years, another candidate from OAU should be aspiring for another term, when a particular bloc has not represented the zone.
