Speaking during the well-attended gatherings, Chief Onunkwo preached the gospel of grassroot-based, open-door representation. Referring to his antecedent as an administrator, human capital development expert and entrepreneur with a consistent reputation of integrity and excellence in all his dealings ,Chief Onunkwo emphasized the need for the party delegates to elect a capable hand that will ensure the party gets the seat ‘this time’ and seize the opportunity to collaborate with the solution Governor in bringing development to the senatorial district.


In his words, ‘rival political parties are hoping we make the mistake of choosing a weak candidate with scant grassroots base in Anambra South so our great party may lose to them this singular opportunity to have a say in the red chambers of the National Assembly; this is a mistake our party should guard against by fielding a competent candidate with formidable grassroot base, someone with the right message that resonates with the people and their aspirations’.


‘I am not here to make promises like politicians, but I want you to look at my track records, my business investment in this state which is a clear testimony of my faith and commitment to our people and my years of community service as a yardstick for having faith in my ability to deliver; I will definitely not disappoint you’.


In their responses, the various speakers comprising Local Government and Ward Chairmen, as well as other stakeholders of the party, were unanimous in thanking Chief Onunkwo for volunteering to lead the party to victory. They all described him as a 'homeboy with capacity' who has already proven his mettle in various capacities, including sponsoring the activities of the party, adding that his positive impact would be greatly felt when he is given the opportunity at the Senate. 


A survey from some of the attendees showed that the party faithfuls were most comfortable with Chief Onunkwo. They were unanimous in stating that APGA now has its best chance of winning the elusive position given Chief Onunkwo's popularity, record of integrity and love for community service and development.


The delegation will today visit Nnewi South and Aguata Local Government Areas in continuation of the tour.
