Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, has expressed confidence in his win in Anambra State in the 2023 election.
This was the candidate’s position at a harmonization exercise conducted by the Presidential Campaign Management Committee of the Atiku-Okwa ticket in Anambra State, led by its Director General, Professor Obiora Okonkwo.
Given the degree of support from Ndi Anambra, Okonkwo believes Atiku Abubakar and Senator Ifeanyichukwu Okowa will win a majority of votes in Anambra State.

Okonkwo announced this at the state management committee meeting in Awka, Anambra State.
He lauded the work ethic, devotion, and dedication of Rt. Hon. Onyebuchi Offor, the Deputy Director for Support and Volunteer Groups and minority leader in the Anambra State 7th Assembly.
He said: “We have no doubt that Anambra state will deliver majority votes for PDP; this has remained the pattern since 1999. We’ve remained a PDP state even when there’s another party at the state level, but the people have continued to vote for a national party with the spread and capacity to win the presidency.
“So far, we have received reports from the Deputy Director for Volunteer and Support Groups, Rt. Hon. Onyebuchi Offor, that over two hundred support and volunteer groups with a combined membership of over 500, 000 electorates who cut across the 5,720 polling booths in the state have been harmonized.”

During the meeting, Onyebuchi Offor confirmed that more volunteer groups in the state were still supporting Atiku Abubakar’s presidential bid, and that they had begun to mobilize other voters, even going so far as to self-fund their campaigns and outreach.
Offor stated that, in addition to the already coordinated 200 self-funding groups, there are a slew of other volunteer groups supporting the PDP Presidential candidate.
“We are looking forward to harmonizing more support groups and raising the number to above one million voters who would troop out en masse on the day of the election and cast their ballots for the PDP and defend such votes.”
Okonkwo called the progress as “time” and “evidence that the management committee is made up of square pegs in a square hole and competent hands delivering on their mandate and speciality.” He expressed confidence in and lauded Rt. Hon. Onyebuchi Offor, whom he regarded as a trailblazer and skilled grassroots political mobilizer.

Okonkwo also stated that Anambra is the PDP’s home state and that the party parades a slew of outstanding candidates in all assembly election posts in the state, urging the people to continue to support the party.
With over 500,000 electorates already aligned for the PDP and more on the way, it’s clear that our people have begun to believe our message, taking note of the fact that an Atiku Abubakar presidency is inevitable given the realities on the ground and Anambra votes will be mobilized for the PDP.
