Governorship aspirant for the Anambra State Governorship election, Sir Paul Chukwuma has disclosed that he is prepared for any form of mode of party primaries the All Progressives Congress, APC, decided to adopt.

 

Chukwuma made this disclosure to newsmen shorty after he was screened by the screening committee set up by the party saying he is willing to abide by the party’s decision as whatever the party say is supreme.

 

According to him: ” The party is supreme, whatever decision the party makes, members of the party are bound to follow. Like I said, I’m ready for the primaries, I’m ready for the general elections. The decision of the party to go for indirect primaries is a welcome development.

 

” I’m very comfortable with it because at the end of the day it is the party members that will vote and being with these party members from the starting of this party, you should know that I should be smiling as a matter of fact.

 

 ” So, I’m very happy that the party has taken that decision and prepared for both direct and indirect, I’m prepared for the election either ways, I’m prepared for consensus, I’m prepared for any mode the party decides because I know that I have worked hard for the party.

 

” And our party people are men and women of conscience and they would recognise the sacrifice and commitment to the party and the fact that I’m very qualified to lead Anambra. Based on that, I have no fear that I will emerge victorious and become the candidate of the party”, he stated.

 

On the question of if he was talking and relating with other aspirants despite they are all in the same race, the former auditor of the party stated: ” All the aspirants are talking to me because I’m the oldest member of the party and I also need to guide them and draw their attention to the discipline and culture of the party.

 

 ” So, in fairness to them, they have been consulting me, they have being talking to me and we have a very good relationship as colleagues. I’m pretty much convinced that each and everyone of us is qualified to lead the state but you will agree with me as journalists that looking at my resume’, I’m the most qualified to lead Anambra APC to Government House.

 

” But, having said that we have a very good working relationship and pretty much sure that when I emerge the candidate of the party, my colleagues in the struggle will be more than happy to work with me for us to take Anambra give it back to Ndi Anambra”, he added.
