The Senator representing Anambra Central Senatorial District, Iyom Uche Ekwunife has described the destruction of her campaign posters and billboards by the opposition as an act that is incapable of stopping her from winning. the February 25th National Assembly elections.
Ekwunife who was speaking in a town hall meeting in Obosi in Idemili North Local Goverment Area expressed confidence that the people of the senatorial district will re-elect her to return to the senate.
She noted that her posters and billboards are etched in the hearts of the people having served them meritoriously in the last three and half years in office.
The federal lawmaker challenged her opponents whom she noted have helplessly resorted to propaganda, slander and blackmail to bring forward their records of performance for the people to compare and contrast.
“At my level in politics, there is hardly anything I’ve not seen. The propaganda and fake news my opponents are sponsoring on social media arise from the fact that they cannot compete with me on issues relevant to the development of Anambra Central Senatorial District.
“My developmental achievements in the last three and half years have weakened their competition, hence they are now solely focused on pitching my candidacy against the candidacy of the Labour Party Presidential Candidate, Mr Peter Obi who is seeking to fulfill his destiny just as I’m seeking to fulfill mine.”
Iyom Ekwunife stated that she remains focused on propagating her message of consolidation and that her spirit will never be dampened by the efforts of detractors who out of the fear of defeat, have embraced campaign of calumny.
“I have toured the 59 communities in Anambra Central and in each community I visit, I present my scorecard and records of achievements. These achievements are visible and verifiable. I am confident that Ndi Anambra Central will vote for me as no one changes a winning team”, she added.
The Chairman Senate committee on Science, Technology and Innovation recalled how she fought gallantly to ensure that Metallurgical school in Obosi was not taken to Onitsha.
