“Frank Will Give Enugu State Honest, Compassionate Govt–Traders

Traders and shoppers at Abakpa market in Enugu, say that the APGA governorship candidate in the state, Frank Nweke Jnr., will give Enugu people honest and compassionate government if elected into power.
They stated this when Nweke and his campaign team stormed Abakpa market on Thursday. Moving from street to street in the large market, Nweke interacted with residents, stopping to address the crowd at intervals.
Nweke told the people to rise up in line with the words of his popular jingle (Kunie)- which means rise – and take back the state from the poor performing Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He highlighted the advantages of the All Progressives Grand Alliance as the party of the people, founded by great Igbo leader, Ikemba Odumegwu Ojukwu, on the principle of Shared Prosperity.
“For us in APGA, it is about our collective progress and we have had 24 years of the PDP with no water to show for it. “Insecurity is at an all-time high. Workers and pensioners do not get paid. It is time to make a change to a leadership that will focus on the people and your well-being. That is what APGA is offering to you,” Nweke assured the traders.
Reacting to Nweke’s visit to the market, Chinedu Odika said that the APGA flag bearer is remarkably humane.
“Frank Nweke is a gentleman, I have seen him and from my assessments, and now looking at him, you know that he is credible with great potential. “He is up and doing and I believe that he will remove all these problems that we are having in Enugu State,” he said.
Odika noted that other parties had failed the people of the state, hence, there is the need to elect credible, honest and accountable leaders like Nweke.
“They bring a broom and use it to make Enugu dirty. They bring the umbrella, and it is not even good. The APGA cock sounds the alarm telling us it is morning that we should wake up. “That is a sign that Frank Nweke is the man that will wake Enugu State up.” he stated.
Expressing delight at seeing Nweke in person at the market, Madam Nnenna Onyewu, a fish seller, challenged him to provide an honest government that would keep his word to the people.
“We don’t need the government that gives us N200 or N1,000 only to be kept under the sun telling us they will come by 12 o’clock. “We come out abandoning our business to wait for them till 6 o’clock and they have not yet arrived. We will be hungry and the ones who depend on us will be hungry.
“We want good governance this time around that will serve your children and also serve our children. Build a good thing for us,” she said.
Onyewu added what Enugu needs is a leader that would give them security and make food available for them.
“We don’t see anything good coming out of the government of the day. Please be upright and honest in governing us when you finally win,” she pleaded.
Patrick Onyia, a shopper, said he appreciated his accessibility and was glad to have come into the market at the same time as Nweke did.
“He seems like a person that will remember the poor, the way I see him. My support and vote are for him,” he said.
