APGA Media Warriors Forum National Coordinator, Evangelist Chinedu Obigwe, has condemned All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in the Anambra November 8 election, Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu, for what they described as disparaging remarks about the late Igbo leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu and wife.
Obigwe reacted to Ukachukwu’s comments on Channels TV, where he claimed to have defeated Bianca Ojukwu, wife of the late Igbo leader Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, in a senatorial ticket contest.
Obigwe described Ukachukwu’s statement as a “greatest insult” to Ojukwu’s memory, accusing him of shamelessly lying on national television.
He also alleged that Ukachukwu secured his party’s nominations through manipulation, citing the 2023 APGA senatorial primary election where Ukachukwu emerged candidate through allegedly swapping authentic delegate lists with fake ones.
“The fact remains that Nicholas Ukachukwu is shameless and that was the singular reason he came to national TV to be ranting.
“As long as I’m concerned, Nicholas Ukachukwu knows nothing about governance and no electorate in Anambra State that is in his right senses will vote for him.
“I will not forget to state emphatically that he lied on his claim of being a political godfather in Anambra State.
“To the best of my knowledge, Ukachukwu is suffering from ‘it must be me at all cost mentality” disease.
Obigwe added, “If he contest primary election and lose, he will sabotage the effort of the primary election winner in the main election.
“He did this to many candidate of PDP and that was Nyesom Wike reason for telling him openly that he destroyed Anambra PDP.
“When Nicholas Ukachukwu contested PDP ticket with Governor Soludo and lost, he went to Hope party to destroy Soludo chances of winning that election.
“When he contested in 2013 and lost PDP ticket to Tony Nwoye, he sabotaged Tony Nwoye by supporting Obiano to win the election against Tony Nwoye.
“I see him as a shameless saboteur and not as a godfather.”
