The Indian nationalist, Subhas Chandra Bose, once said, “Freedom is not given, it is taken.”
Those timeless words still hold true today. Anambra State is blessed with strong, resilient, and industrious people who desire only honest leadership and fair opportunities to prosper. Yet, for years, the people have endured too much talk and too little action. The time has come for leaders who understand the people’s needs and possess the capacity to make things truly work.
That is why the emergence of Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu as the Gubernatorial Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Senator Dr. Uche Ekwunife as the Deputy Gubernatorial Candidate offers renewed hope for Anambra’s political and economic rebirth.
Prince Ukachukwu is not a man of empty words, but of measurable results. Through his vast business ventures, he has created jobs, empowered communities, and supported numerous development initiatives across the state. His philosophy is simple, leadership must be about the people, not about personal ambition.
Senator Uche Ekwunife, on her part, has consistently demonstrated integrity, courage, and dedication to service. Her record in the National Assembly speaks volumes about her commitment to effective representation and tangible development. Beyond her legislative accomplishments, she also served with distinction as the Director-General of the South-East Governors’ Forum (SEGOF), where she showcased exceptional leadership, administrative acumen, and a deep understanding of governance. Under her watch, SEGOF strengthened inter-state cooperation in key areas such as infrastructure development, security coordination, and regional economic growth. She remains dependable, accessible, and unwavering in her passion for the welfare of Anambra’s people.
Together, Ukachukwu and Ekwunife embody the perfect blend of vision, experience, and compassion. They complement each other — one, a builder with proven capacity for development; the other, a tested legislator with a deep connection to the grassroots.
At this defining moment, Anambra does not need leaders who divide or boast. What the people need are leaders who listen, care, and deliver on their promises.
Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu and Senator Uche Ekwunife represent that new dawn, a partnership rooted in sincerity, hard work, and a genuine desire to rebuild trust, restore hope, and move Anambra forward.
