He recalled Anyanwu’s philanthropic gestures through which he effectively empowered numerous people in his zone, Imo State and the country at large.

“Other candidates are good in their own rights but Senator Anyanwu is better,” he said.

“Senator Anyanwu (popularly known as Samdaddy) also effectively represented Owerri Zone (Imo East) in the Senate where he chaired notable committees.

” All these portray the PDP candidate as a grassroots politician who will consequently use his down to earth approach and people oriented policies to address the numerous challenges bedevilling Imo State like insecurity, lack of social welfare for Imo residents, rising inflation, poor rural infrastructural development and lack of human capital development among others, ” he said.

Commenting, Mr Franklin Eze who spoke on behalf of the other local government area coordinators said that they are in solidarity with Senator Anyanwu, come rain, come shine.

He said serious mobilization effort had commenced especially at the grassroost to garner massive votes for Samdaddy.

A representative of the Imo Business Community, Chief Felix Nwabueze urged Imo people not to waste their votes by voting for any other candidate except the ‘quintessential politician and technocrat Samdaddy.’

According to him, Anyanwu emerging as the governor of Imo State is a good thing that will happen to the state.

He urged Samdaddy’s supporters not to be violent but always play according to the rules of the game before, during and after the election.
