As the political momentum builds ahead of the upcoming Anambra South Senatorial by-election, frontline contender, Hon. Sir Azuka Okwuosa, has called on constituents to support and vote for a candidate with proven capacity to deliver meaningful service to the people.
In a statement released by his media team, Okwuosa emphasized the need for a senator who goes beyond mere political rhetoric to represent the interests of Anambra South vigorously at the national level. He noted that the region requires a voice that will not be lost in the din of politics, but one that stands firm in defending the homeland, promoting the people’s welfare, and contributing constructively to national development through quality lawmaking.
“It is crucial that the right person be chosen—not just to fill a seat, but to serve selflessly and represent the people of Anambra South with integrity and courage,” the statement reads. “The ideal candidate must prioritize the common good over personal gain and resist the influence of rabble-rousers who grandstand at plenary sessions but fail their constituents back home.”
Okwuosa stressed that a worthy senator must possess demonstrable capacity and a track record of public service that resonates with market women, farmers, artisans, and other grassroots stakeholders across Anambra South. Accessibility, he noted, is a key quality—someone respected by both the elite and the everyday people, and whose influence never becomes a barrier to engaging with the electorate.
He further urged that the candidate should be free from pride and prejudice, and while perfection is not expected, the individual must be devoid of questionable baggage that undermines public trust. “We need someone who has managed public resources transparently and effectively—someone whose integrity can stand public scrutiny,” he added.
As political parties prepare for the primaries, voters across the zone are actively weighing their choices, with calls for a free, fair, and credible process by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). Within the All Progressives Congress (APC), indications suggest that Hon. Sir Azuka Okwuosa, popularly known as Chinyelugo, has emerged as the preferred candidate to fly the party’s flag in the senatorial race.
The Okwuosa media team is calling on all well-meaning constituents to rally behind their principal, whom they describe as a visionary leader capable of transforming Anambra South’s representation at the Senate.
