2019 Election: APC Vows To Provide Credible, Qualitative Leadership

The All Progressives Congress (APC), in Ebonyi has promised the people of the state that the party will provide a credible leadership, if elected to governorship seat in 2019.

The acting state chairman of the party, Mr Eze Nwachukwu, said this on Thursday in Abakaliki, at a stakeholders’ meeting held at the party secretariat.

Nwachukwu said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) led administration of Governor Dave Umahi, had failed to deliver good governance and credible leadership .

“We will provide credible, qualitative and people -oriented leadership, anchored on good governance and rule of law. We will right the wrongs in Ebonyi when our party takes the mantle of leadership of the state and we pledge not to fail our people.

“We assure party faithful and residents of Ebonyi that APC remains focused and committed to peaceful, violence free and credible elections in 2019 in Ebonyi. Our party is the most vibrant opposition party and is poised to take over power from the ruling PDP, “ he said.

Nwachukwu also expressed optimism that APC would enjoy landslide victory in the state, which he attributed to the highest population of registered members that the party already have.

He also said that the national secretariat of the party had approved voter sensitisation rallies for Ebonyi, to sensitise the people on the need to participate in the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration (CVR).

“In line with the directive from the national headquarters of our party, APC in Ebonyi will commence a tour rally of the 13 local government areas of the state to mobilise, educate, and sensitise eligible voters on the need to participate in the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration.

“Registration and collection of the voter cards is the only qualification to vote in the elections; any eligible voter without his or her voter card will have no business at the polling booths during election,” he said.

Nwachukwu therefore, urged APC supporters to ensure that they effectively participate in the CVR exercise and other vital electoral processes, warning the electorate against selling their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and urged them to report those who would engage in the illegal selling and buying of PVCs to the Police.
