Nnewi South Stakeholders appeals for equity and fairness in the Anambra South Senatorial Position
The stakeholders of Nnewi South in Anambra South Senatorial Zone, in a recent meeting appealed and stood united in their voice that every Local Government Area in our zone deserves fair and equitable representation in the Nigerian Senate and that the coming bye-election provides an opportunity for Anambra South to address a long-standing inequity, where Nnewi South has been left without any federal representation.
The current political landscape of Anambra South is unbalanced. While each of the other six Local Government Areas in our zone has representation at the federal level, either in the House of Representatives or in the Senate, or Governorship position, Nnewi South has been left out with nothing.
Ekwusigo LGA has a sitting Federal House Member; representing Nnewi North, Nnewi South, and Ekwusigo Federal Constituency.
Ihiala has a Federal House of Reps Constituency and has also produced a Governor in the person of Governor Chinwoke Mbadinuju.
Orumba North and South has a Federal House of Reps Constituency.
Aguata has both a Federal House of Reps Constituency and currently holds the position of the Governor of Anambra State.
Nnewi North currently holds the position of a Minister, the outgone Senator and the immediate past House of Reps Position.
*Point of Note: Ihiala LGA, Aguata LGA, and Nnewi South LGA all have 20 wards. Whereas Ihiala and Aguata are federal constituencies, Nnewi South is not a federal constituency, thereby putting us in a strategic disadvantage.*
?? *WHERE IS NNEWI SOUTH IN THE POLITICAL REPRESENTATION OF ANAMBRA SOUTH*??
By allowing Nnewi South to produce the next Senator of Anambra South, we will be taking a crucial step towards ensuring that all areas of our zone are represented at the highest levels of government.
As we approach the bye-election, let us not forget the values that have guided our democracy for so many years: equity, fairness, and justice for all. Let us embrace these values by giving Nnewi South a chance to be heard and represented at the national level.
