F emi Fani Kayode's thoughts on Anambra's election

The situation in Anambra state gives cause for deep concern. I sincerely hope that INEC sees the wisdom in doing the whole thing all over again and having a rerun since they have declared the election "inconclusive".

The sheer desperation of Peter Obi and his APGA candidate disgusts me. Upon all their dirty tactics, lies, rabid igbo nationalism, racist slurs and blatant prejudices APGA couldn't ...even get up to 25 per cent of the vote in the constitutionally required number of local government areas in the state. What a shame.

Senator Chris Ngige of the APC is one of the most respectable, refined, well respected and best loved igbo men in Nigeria today and I have no doubt that he is by far the best man for the job. Let us hope that at the end of it all he emerges as the governor of Anambra state. This would be in the best interest of Anambra state itself, the igbo and indeed Nigeria.
