The Candidate of Progressive People Alliance (PPA), for the November 18 Governorship election in Anambra State, Mr Godwin Ezeemo, has pledged to run an all-inclusive government in order to move the state forward if elected. Speaking to newsmen in Awka, Sunday, Ezeemo said that good governance would be better achieved when the state administration is broad-based.
The governorship Candidate said his administration would make use of technocrats within the party. “When you say ‘all-inclusive’ it doesn’t mean that you will go and give these jobs to people who did not work. “There are enough technocrats inside our party PPA, “It will be suicidal for any elected governor to abandon people that have worked for he/her success.
There are learned, responsible people in our party in Anambra. “Okada (commercial motorcycle rider) will be special assistant, non-indigene resident in the state, the Ibibios, Egbiras, Yorubas and Hausas tribes must have special assistant, Igbo (tribe) must have special assistants, market men and women leader must have special assistants
and non-educated people must also have special assistants in my Government, he said.
So all-inclusive that I’m talking about means that even an illiterate will be part of the government.’’ To prove his point Ezeemo said he would open the gates at the government house free so that the people could move in and out of the government house freely.
He also said that he would provide free meals for Primary School wards accross the State, people wandering in the streets and give them a sense of belonging.
When I become governor of Anambra State come November 18, by the Grace of God, I will make the government house gates open, everybody will troop there even if the governor is not around, he said.
