The Senator Andy Uba Campaign Organisation has rejected the results of the just-concluded Anambra State governorship election won by Prof. Charles Soludo of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).

Spokesperson of the campaign organisation, Ambassador Jerry Ugokwe, described the outcome of the election as a charade and did not reflect the wishes of the people of Anambra State.

Ugokwe, who appealed to the supporters to remain peaceful and calm, said that Uba would not relent in pursuing his stolen electoral mandate to the limit of the law through all the constitutional means available, as the facts on ground did not in any way reflect the outcome of the elections as announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
