This development did not occur in isolation. It followed a series of constitutionally documented events that created a leadership vacuum in the Anambra State Chapter, prompting lawful intervention from the National Secretariat. Why the Former Chairman, Surveyor Emeka Obi, Was Removed The National Executive Council (NEC) has clarified that the suspension of Surveyor Emeka Obi was not arbitrary, political, or influenced by external actors. Rather, it was the direct implementation of Congress resolutions which suspended him...

 Visionless APC and Anambra's Hapless Cockerel By Chidume Odume The Encyclopedia Britannica Editors in their latest update of May 13, 2025, stated that Theatre of the Absurd presented in the dramatic works of certain European and American dramatists of the 1950s and early ’60s who agreed with the Existentialist philosopher Albert Camus’s assessment in his essay “The Myth of Sisyphus” (1942), were unequivocal that the human situation can become essentially absurd and devoid of purpose. It is election campaign season in Anambra State, with November 8, 2025 set for gubernatorial polls. Major actors are already on the campaign trail trying to win the electorates to their side with clear statements of intent enshrined in their party Manifesto. Alas, less than four months to that D-day, some political parties are yet to connect or approach the citizens with tangible, achievable programmes. Chief amongst the visionless throng is the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra whose candida...

 Can Gov. Soludo’s Opponents Get To Olumbanasaa? By Stephen Nnopu Now that the November 8, 2025 Anambra State gubernatorial election is on the front burner, it is crucial to remind all the other contenders gunning for the coveted position of the great distance that the incumbent Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, CFR, has already covered. If I may ask, can these wannabes go the distance? It is well-nigh impossible. Let’s recall that history was made on Saturday, November 25, 2023, when a sitting Governor of Anambra State for the very first time visited Olumbanasaa in Anambra West Local Government Area, previously considered inaccessible. Governor Soludo dared to venture into a land where others dodged, demonstrating uncommon courage and unprecedented hands-on leadership. He clearly showed that he is the governor of everybody, not just those whose locations can be conveniently accessed through well-paved roads. The journey to Olumbanasaa was an emotional one for Professor Soludo, as ...

 Anambra 2025 and Soludo’s Victory Warrant By Donald Ifenna Anambra State, south east Nigeria, is unarguably one of the most difficult states to govern countrywide. The “Igbo enwe eze” self-worth that informs the worldview of an average Igbo person seems to find louder expression amongst Anambra people. This is probably entrenched by the vast spread of persons outstandingly successful in their careers; some whose ostensible riches, popularity or even brazen notoriety impel desperation for disruptive recognitions. These tendencies often challenge the will and ability of an Anambra State governor to attain their intended goals. Not Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo! The revolving season in Anambra State when the fabrics of the state’s political structure are shaken to the core has dawned. At such time the state’s resolve to self-regenerate is interrogated. The impending November 8, 2025 gubernatorial election in the state conduces to the evident heightening tempo of political activiti...
