‘Why I'm in Anambra Central senatorial contest'

Comments · 679Views

Helen Mbakwe, the New Nigeria People's Party (NNPP) senatorial candidate for Anambra Central, has revealed why she is running.

She stated that as the country is discussing a new Nigeria, the current National Assembly members should be replaced.

She stated that, if elected, she would bring new initiatives to the National Assembly, one of which would be to collaborate with the next President.

A lawyer named Mbakwe told The Nation in Anambra that Senators, Uche Ekwunife, and Victor Umeh, among others, should leave and allow others to in.

Mbakwe faces serious political opponents, including Chief Kodilichukwu Okelekwe of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Umeh of Labour Party (LP), and Ekwunife of People's Democratic Party (PDP).

"Since we are planning for a new president in Nigeria, we should also plan for new legislators who can work effectively with him," she said.

She blamed former and present governments of not doing more to address the issue of insecurity.

She maintained that fixing the issue did not require rocket science.

She said that if Nigerians were serious about bringing about positive change, they should adopt the party's theme of optimism.

This, according to her, entails voting for an entirely new group of system-untainted individuals.

"I voted for the NNPP because I support New Nigeria," "If we hope for a brand-new Nigeria with a brand-new president, Anambra Central must also have a brand-new senator to represent it," she said.
