Senator Uche Ekwunife, deputy governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the recent Anambra State election, has extended congratulations to Governor Prof. Chukwuma Soludo following his re-election.
Ekwunife’s statement comes a day after her principal, Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu, raised concerns over alleged intimidation, electoral violence, and vote-buying during the poll, signaling that he was considering legal options.
In a press release, Ekwunife emphasised that the interest of Anambra State must take precedence over political rivalry. She commended her principal and supporters for their contributions, stating their campaign embodied faith, unity, and hope.
“Though the election outcome may not have been what we desired, I am profoundly proud of the effort that Prince Dr. Nicholas Ukachukwu and I put into this race. I am humbled by the outpouring of love and support we received that has written a victory of faith, unity, and hope, a victory that no ballot can erase,” she said.
Ekwunife urged citizens to focus on peace, progress, and unity, extending warm congratulations to Governor Soludo on his victory. She highlighted that the success of Anambra benefits all residents, calling on stakeholders to collaborate in building a stronger, more prosperous state.
