The youths in Abagana held a historic congress to
set a new path for their future and develop a common agenda in preparation for
the 2015 general elections.
The congress held at Ezi Udoeke Square on
Sunday, February 8, 2015, observed that the activities of a people during
election has a lot to do with how democratic dividends are distributed. Thus,
the youths vowed to stand behind the government of Anambra State led by a
people oriented governor, Chief Willie Obiano who has shown enough goodwill in
less than 12 months in office.
The massive support enjoyed by the All
Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and it’s candidates for 2015 elections
across many local government areas was replicated at the Youth Congress in
Abagana, Njikoka LGA with the declaration of support for governor Obiano and
all APGA Candidates.
The young men and women made-up of
youths from Abagana Ward 1 extolled the virtues of governor Willie Obiano and
promised to stand behind the governor and APGA come March 28 and April 11,
2015.
Speaking during the congress, the Executive
Assistant to Governor Willie Obiano on Social Media, Comrade Ifeanyi Aniagoh
charged the youths to discard fake campaign promises and stand with a willingly
working governor. Comrade Ifeanyi emphasized that “the pace at which governor
Obiano transformed Anambra State using his 4Cs strategy in less than a year
gives hope to every community within the state”.
“Chief Willie Obiano is a youth friendly
governor, within 10 months he registered Anambra Youths via
anambrayouthconnect.com; provided over 2,000 direct and indirect jobs; and
currently leads in provision of employment opportunities through
Youth-in-Agriculture programmes” Ifeanyi added.
In his speech, the ward coordinator of
National Youth Council of Nigeria, Comrade Ferdinand Ibekwe thanked governor
Obiano for appointing Ifeanyi Aniagoh as his aide stating that Abagana Ward 1
is lucky to have one of their active youths in the governor’s team.
In same vein, Comrade Chuma Nwandu who is the
ward chairman of United Anambra Youth Assembly, reminded the congress of the
need to support APGA saying, “I believe our yearnings and aspirations can be
achieved if we tow this path. Governor Obiano and APGA can complete the
Ezi-Icheke – Nimo Road, give us water, rebuild our schools and positively
engage us. We have better stake in this government. I believe the long neglect
by past governments will soon be over”.
The congress unanimously agreed to support the
administration of Chief Willie Obiano and massively vote for all APGA
candidates.
