The All Progressives Congress primary election for House of Representatives held last weekend in Anambra State has continued to raise dust.
Moreso five days after, the official results have not been announced.
The situation has therefore thrown both winners and losers in quandary.
Already the appeal panel to look into petitions and objections has arrived from the Abuja headquarters of the party.
Repeated calls to the State Chairman, Sen Emma Anosike has not received any answer. He was dutifully excused to be in a meeting always.
Dr (Barrister) Kingsley Ezekwelu who asserted that he recorded a sweeping victory across all the electoral Wards in Idemili Federal Constituency has disclosed that the welfare of the electorates was his watchword as he prepares to also sweep the stakes at the main poll later in the year.
He noted that the nation and her citizens must be salvaged from the pervading decadence.
He noted that his earlier consultation tours opened his eyes and ears more appreciate the level of challenges in the land. But sadly most of those currently in authority carry on as if all is well.
"My Idemili Federal Constituency comprising seventeen very sizable communities consequently showed high level enthusiasm by coming out enmasse to vote for me...
I am therefore committed to wiping their tears and lifting them out of the political doldrum they currently were neglected in.
"All economic, political and social difficulties should become history when I step into the hallowed chamber of the national Assembly soon."
He reminded voters to bear in mind that All Progressives Congress remains the ruling party, hence an articulate politician do his homework well to position himself in winning ways to enable his people benefit well.
When Ezekwelu was confronted with the bickering trailing his victory, he pointed out that political contest was about controversy, "because there must winners and losers always
"My people are clearly tired of excuses for failing. We must get it right this time.
One of the contenders, in the constituency Chief Innocent Igboekwe called for cancellation of the election.
In a strongly worded petition to the National Chairman and other top officers and arms of the party, her enumerated perceived lapses he and his agents saw.
It was further learnt he has gone to Abuja headquarters personal as this report was being articulated.
Hon Patrick Udoba from Anambra East/West Federal Constituency also cried foul, and wants it cancelled.
