Ahead of the March 11, 2023 state assembly elections, a chieftain of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), Hon. ThankGod Anagor, has said that failing to elect members of the Anambra state assembly from the ruling All Progressives Grand Alliance would detail pace of development, and further distract Governor Charles Soludo from actualizing his good plans for the state.
In a statement on Monday, March 6, Anagor, who is the Transition Committee Chairman of Awka South local government area of Anambra state, called on youths of the state and the entire citizenry to support the current APGA administration, by voting massively for the party come Saturday, March 11. This, he said, would equally save the hard-working governor from any form of impeachment threat.

He said:
"Virtually all APGA candidates campaigned for Peter Obi during their tours and meetings. In Anambra, where APGA is domicile, Obi got the highest votes in Southeast; if not in the entire federation. So, be informed and shun mischief-makers trying to destroy our state because, when the chips are down, it is our state that we will fall back to.
"Anambra youths, I call on you to remain steadfast and not allow yourselves be be deceived or be used against a government that has done so much already for you with lots more still loading. Over 20,000 youths have benefitted and still benefiting from 'one youth two skills initiative' which will empower thousands, if not millions of youths every year, and it is still in its early stages. This makes your future even brighter.
"Soludo's administration has in the first few months employed capable 5,000 teachers (men, women and youths) into Anambra state schools. This is a feat that no Nigerian governor has achieved, yet, he received no applaud for this.
"Looking at the blueprint, Soludo has secured the future of our children from getting the best education through the best teachers to acquiring at least 2 post-school skills through 'one youth two skills.' The future is indeed bright.
"I need not remind you of the on-going roads construction projects in almost all the 21 local governments of the state simultaneously. Quality access roads is a pathway to speedy development. This development should not be stalled because of our ignorance.
"Also, remember the empowerment of the 21 TC Chairmen to bring about palliative measures on every community's road during the last yuletide period, to make our roads penetrable for the return of Anambra people to their different communities."
He said that Mr Governor, in the last one year, has brought civility and prudence in the expenditure profile of the state, resulting in the birth of developmental strides, without using the approved N100 billion, by the state house of assembly."
