The senatorial ambition of High Princess Ada Ogbu, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for Enugu East Zone seems to be resonating with the younger generation as most of them are at home with her candidacy.
Going by the outcome of a poll by a twitter user; Mr Sash Awa, the Nara-born amazon gave the candidates of other parties a bloody nose.
Mr. Sash; a popular social media personality, a budding scholar, a content creator, a writer, a social analyst, a politically aware citizen of Enugu East Senatorial District, conducted the poll for the frontline contenders; Dr. Chimaroke Nnamani Of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP); Princess Ada Ogbu of the APC and Barr. Oyibo Chukwu of the Labour Party.
After the poll, 88 percent of the voters preferred the APC Candidate. Nine percent went for Chimaroke while three percent preferred Oyibo of Labour Party
Sash Awa said the outcome of the poll isn’t far from the reality because “Princess Ada Ogbu has without doubt, changed the political climate of Nkanu Land, Enugu East Senatorial District, and the state of Enugu at large. She is reportedly all over the place talking to the people, enlightening many on the need to vote the right candidate into the Senatorial seat of Enugu East.
“She has dislodged even before the campaigns started, those who have little to nothing to offer the people, her people. To her, Ndi Enugu East are her people, she sees them not as mere voters, instruments of securing political power, etc, but as her people, Ndi Nke Ya. She does all at every slight chance to educate the people on the need not just to vote her, but to vote the right person into the senate.
“I must state at this time that I have scouted the political scenes in Enugu and Nigeria at large, and have settled like all well-meaning Nigerians for certain candidates who I find representing the hope and aspirations of the people. Mr Peter Obi, the Trader-General of Nigeria is the first name on my list, and for the senatorial district where I fall into, Enugu East, Princess Ada Ogbu, the only proven royalty in the race, the only princess and lady in the race to represent the people made it as my one and only choice.
“I thought I was alone on these choices so far shown only to notice that most people I have spoken to also have these two, Mr Peter Obi, and Princess Ada Ogbu. To me, they have a lot in common, but let me leave it for someone else to speak about, or as a matter for another day.”
