Anambra 2025: APC’ll deploy polling unit managers to secure their votes – Awogu

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State has said it would deploy poling units managers during the November 8, 2025 Governorship election in the State to ensure that their votes are secured.
The National Coordinator of Ikemba Front, Sir Arinze Awogu, who stated this during a strategic meeting of ward leaders, support group, women leaders among others in Atani, Ogbaru Local Government Area of the State encouraged members of the party to go back to their wards and increase the membership of the party.
He emphasized the need for the APC members to work hard to win their polling units during the November 8 election, saying that they can only achieve that when they encourage their friends, neighborhood and relations to join and vote for the party.
He said the essence of the meeting was to prepare and encourage them to return back to their respective wards, hold meetings and expand the party.
Awogu said they were able to tell themselves the truth that politics is not done in the cities, State capitals or even Local Government headquarters but in the respective wards and polling units.
The essence, he said, is that the APC members would take foothold of the grassroots that would give them leverage to win their wards and polling units during the governorship election.
He said : “We are happy we are making progress. The whole 16 wards in Ogbaru Local Government are represented in the meeting. And we have agreed we are taking the battle to our various wards and polling units, so we expect the details of our discussion to take effect in wards and polling units in the days to come”.
The National Coordinator of Ikemba Front said APC has come to stay not only in Ogbaru but in the entire State and :”we have established the embers of growth for the party in the State and would continue in that trajectory”
He noted that APC is only one party including those who joined the party lately, stressing that the strength of the party lies in its support groups.
Awogu also said that the support groups are tools the party uses for its struggle to achieve power in the State.
“What we did today is that various support groups came together to build affinity. Earlier in my address I had stated that the party is supreme”.
Those who attended the meeting were the Local Government Executives, National Excutives, Zonal Excutives, State Excutives, Stakeholders and the Excutives of all Political support groups under APC in the Local Government.
The meeting was convened to strategize for the upcoming Governorship election and to discuss campaign strategies, mobilization efforts during Dr. Nicholas Ukachukwu’s tour of Local Government Areas of the State.
