The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Anambra State is set to hold its gubernatorial primary election today, April 8th, 2025, at the Dora Akunyili Women Development Center in Awka. This event will determine the party’s candidate for the upcoming 2025 Anambra State governorship election, okay.ng reports.
High Chief (Sir) Amb. Jude Ezenwafor, a leading aspirant, has pledged to transform Anambra State through extensive infrastructure development and to unify the PDP if he secures the party’s nomination. During a pre-primary inspection, Ezenwafor assured delegates of their safety and promised to deploy resources to prevent disruptions or thuggery during the election process. He also vowed to resolve any internal divisions within the party.
