Governor Willie Obiano has described his victory in last Saturday's Governorship election in the state as a solid resolve by Ndi Anambra to rise above varying interests and take full control of their destiny.
The governor disclosed this in an acceptance speech in an acceptance speech titled "Time to Build a New world" which he made after he was declared winner of the election by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
Governor Obiano who maintained that the victory belongs to every Igbo man who is concerned about the place of Ndigbo in the nation's polity, said in the next four years, APGA will make in-roads into other SouthEast and South South states.
The governor called on his co-contestants in the election to see the result as a victory for the entire Ndi Anambra, restating that the interest of State is bigger than their private ambitions and urging them to join hands with him to build a better place for the people.
He said by the victory, Ndi Anambra have demonstrated that they are capable of taking charge of their lives and making difficult decisions that will brighten their future.
While describing the mandate as a historic call not to relent until the state has fully assumed the status of the model state of Nigeria, Governor Obiano said the victory is the final product of the combined efforts of brilliant men and women who sacrificed their personal comfort to ensure that Anambra’s steady march to progress is not derailed.
The governor expressed gratitude to all members of APGA for their steadfastness, the INEC for conducting a transparent election and the law enforcement agencies whose alertness ensured that the people's mandate is not thwarted and charged the people to prepare for the speedy transformation of the State into a prosperous sub-national entity in the next four years.
According to him, the state has stepped into its finest hour and it's journey into greatness is now assured, saying his government is open to new ideas and vision and is willing to work with anyone who has something to share.
