Former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has openly endorsed George Moghalu in the upcoming 2025 Anambra State governorship election.
Why Obi Supports Moghalu
In a statement released on Tuesday, Obi explained that his support is based on Moghalu’s manifesto, which prioritizes human development as the core of governance. He stressed that Moghalu’s plans focus on improving the lives of citizens through practical and people-centered policies.
Commitment to Anambra’s Future
Obi described Moghalu as a competent leader who embodies the values of compassion, capacity, and character. According to him, the Labour Party candidate has consistently shown true leadership qualities that can secure a brighter and more dignified future for Anambra residents.
He wrote on X (formerly Twitter):
“Over the weekend, I joined George Moghalu, the Labour Party’s governorship candidate, at a town hall meeting and campaign in Nimo, Anambra Central Senatorial Zone.
“Together with the Obidient family, I fully support @MoghaluGeorge because his campaign manifesto places human development at the heart of governance. He is committed to strengthening security, advancing education, improving healthcare, and lifting our people out of poverty. These priorities matter most at a time when the safety of lives and property and the future of our children’s education remain critical concerns.
“Beyond competence, George Moghalu has consistently demonstrated capacity, compassion, and character—the essential values of true leadership. We are confident that under his guidance, Anambra will record measurable progress and achieve meaningful human development.”
