Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, representing Anambra South Senatorial district, has declared his intention to run for the Anambra governorship in 2025, pledging to serve only one term if elected. Ubah, who recently switched from the Young Progressive Party (YPP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC), expressed his commitment to completing the turn of the Anambra South senatorial district, in line with the existing zoning agreement in the state.
Speaking in Nnewi, Ubah emphasized the urgent need to put Anambra on the path of economic growth. He criticized the administration of Governor Chukwuma Soludo, stating that it has been a disappointment to the people. Soludo, from Anambra South, is seeking re-election on the platform of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
Ubah promised to conduct local government elections within four months if elected governor, aiming to distribute development evenly across the state. He asserted that a focused governor could achieve significant progress in four years, expressing dissatisfaction with the perceived slow development under Governor Soludo. Ubah criticized the current administration for allegedly undermining the people’s means of livelihood.
