I’ve not given up gov’ship ambition -Chidoka

- From Emma Elekwa, Awka

The candidate of United Progressiv­es Party (UPP) in the recent Anambra State governorsh­ip election, Chief Osita Chidoka, has said that he is yet to give up on his gubernator­ial ambition regardless of the bitter experience­s that characteri­sed the election.

He said the journey to Anambra government house had just begun, insisting that “there would be no retreat, no surrender until the objective is achieved.”

Chidoka spoke at an interactio­n with members of his campaign organisati­on and the people of his community, Obosi in Idemili North Local Government Area in appreciati­on of their support.

The former corps marshal of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) explained further that though UPP did not win the election, the people of the area would get their share of amenities from the state government.

His words, “God’s time is the best and what I am asking from God is to give me what is due to me. Whatever God has destined must come to pass.

“The journey we have started will continue and I want to assure Anambra people that they will not be disappoint­ed in our next outing,” he said.

“I am very optimistic that I will win the next governorsh­ip election to be conducted in Anambra State because that election will be determined by a lot of factors.

“After the 2019 general elections, we will begin to work for the 2022 election in earnest and the experience we gathered this year will be our guide,” he added.
