Dr Godwin Maduka,a frontline governorship contender for Nov.6 PDP election in Anambra State has urged electorate in the state to understand the political will attached to their vote in electing candidate that would man the affairs of the state in the next political dispensation.
Maduka, who gave the advice on Thursday in an interview with journalists in Awka said he had employed electoral education to enlighten the electors on how to elect the party flag bearer, come June 26 PDP primaries in the state.
Maduka said that he showed interest to contest the 2021 November governorship election, because he desired to right most political wrongs meted out on the people by the leaders whom they elected.
“ Electors need to know that with their votes, they can change the political narratives of the state where the people they elected into office refused to be accountable to them.
“ There is nothing like god-fatherism in politics, only when the electors allow such to exist because they can say enough is enough, through the power of a vote,
“ The delegates need to know that the growth and development of the state lie in their power and not the other way round,
“If they are equipped with these basic information,they will without fear of intimidation elect sound aspirants,” he said.
Maduka said that delegates should know that political inducements or threats from anyone “is against electoral law, and that such act were enemies of progress.
The governorship contender called on the electorate to stand against such acts and report the person caught in the act to security agents and Independent National Electoral Commission officers for prompt action.
Maduka also urged delegates to shun any form of electoral inducement in order not to murder the future growth and development of the state.
“ No to vote buying or unwholesome acts, change the narrative and be a political tool to change electoral fraud and make politicians answerable to their actions, do not fear them, they should fear you instead, this is power of vote,” he said.
According to him, electorate should see electoral inducement as a distraction, capable worthy of ruining the future generation of the State.
Maduka said that he has spoken and enlightened delegates from all political wards and held serious revival meeting with stakeholders, for them to talk to politicians to have a new page of politicking.
“ At a time, one person must man the affairs of the state, but let not use electoral inducement to confuse the masses, persons with verified personality need be voted in to serve.
“ I know what service to humanity is all about, I am a medical doctor and have feelings for people’s welfare, growth and development, my developmental projects and philanthropic gestures over the years are enough to proof my capability in governance and human and resources management,” he said.
