Not less than 41 Senators of the Federal Republic of Nigeria accompanied Senator Andy Uba to the National Secretariat of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC to pick Anambra State Governorship nomination form.
Among the senators, who showed solidarity support to Uba were; Shehu Sani, Danjuma Goje, Dino Melaye and Usman Bayero Nafada among others.
Uba, while answering questions from journalists after picking the nomination and expression of interest forms, said 41 senators followed him to the national secretariat of the ruling APC.
He said he remained the only aspirant who had the capacity to remove Governor Willie Obiano, having got the opportunity to become governor and two-term senator.
On the alleged certificate forgery and the insinuation that he was planning to return to PDP, he said, “It is a very wicked lie. It is blackmail. They are just trying to sabotage me. They know that I’m on ground. They know what I have done for Anambra State and constituency, you can go and check. No senator has done what I have done in Anambra State. So I have evidence, it is there,” he said.
Other APC aspirants who have picked the governorship forms for the November 18 election include Chief George Moghalu and Engineer Bart Nwibe.
