2015: Youth Group beckons on Dubem Obaze to contest Anambra North Senatorial seat

 The journey to National Assembly come 2015 is becoming clearer for Chief Dubem Obaze, Ife aka Chi of Anambra North.

Chief Obaze, a former Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters in Anambra State has received lots of endorsements from various quarters within his Senatorial District.

Recently the youths of the Zone under the auspices of Omambala Youths for Equity and Justice, beckoned on him to come out and represent them in the Senate.

Read the press release signed by the group’s Chairman, Mr Samuel Onuorah:

”A PRESS BRIEFING HOSTED BY OMAMBALA YOUTHS FOR EQUITY AND JUSTICE IN AWKA ON August 25, 2014

Omambala Youths for Equity and Justice is a non-governmental organization with its headquarters at Aguleri. As the name implies, we are at the vanguard for the promotion of equity and justice in Anambra State and particularly in the Anambra North.

We have been observing with keen interest the political developments in Anambra State since the emergence of Governor Willie Obiano as the governor of Anambra State. We commend Governor Peter Obi, Equity 2014 Group and Olu na Adagbe People’s Assembly for championing the cause for the emergence of a governor of Anambra State from the North Senatorial Zone. We thank God for that.

It is in this light that we want to lend our voice to the call by Equity 2014 Group that Chief Dubem Obaze should come out and contest the Senatorial Seat in the Anambra North Senatorial Zone. This is more so considering the fact that Dr. Willie Obiano is from our Omambala Zone.

It is therefore equitable and in the interest of justice that Onitsha and Ogbaru axis, that is, old Onitsha Division be given the chance to produce the next senator of Anambra North.

Again, out of the four Federal Constituencies in Anambra North, it is only Ogbaru that has not tested the seat since the creation of Anambra State on 27th August, 1991.

Equality, they say, is equity. Therefore, we the members of Omambala Youths for Equity and Justice do hereby and on behalf of our Group, beckon on Chief Dubem Obaze to come out and represent us in the Senate come 2015. He has all it takes to be there.

Thank you.”
