Peter Obi, a former governor of Anambra State has said he does not have an anointed aspirant for the November 6th governorship election.
The Vice-Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2019 general election stated this while speaking at the party’s interactive meeting with state officials, local government officers, wards chairmen and secretaries on Wednesday.
He said that every aspirant must go for primary.
According to him: “If anybody comes to you and tells you that he has my blessing or he has paid me anything to support him or her, please ignore the person.”
“I have no special aspirant in my mind. My concern is for PDP primary to be free, fair and credible.”
He further stated that whoever emerges as the winner of the party’s primary will be supported in the governorship election.
Obi called on party officials to vote for someone with the capacity to win an election in the state, noting that not everybody has the capacity to win an election.
“Look for someone with the capacity to win an election.”
“Please use your brain to access all the aspirants before you cast your votes.”
“Think deep well and think about who can win an election and not somebody who will just give you money.
“God has blessed me and I have no reason to support any person because of what I will gain.”
“I don’t have any person that I am training in school now. All my children are grown up and are working.”
