The front-runner in the race for Mbaitoli-Ikeduru ( MBAIKE) Federal Constituency seat on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and founder of Akarachi Foundation, Engineer Akarachi Amadi has said that he wants to be a man for his people by giving qualitative representation and attracting unprecedented developmental projects not cash to MBAIKE.
Engr Akarachi stated this during a meeting he had with leaders and delegates of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Ikeduru Local Government Area, LGA, chapter, Friday, at the ultramodern Cyprain Iwuamadi Hall, Eziama, Ikeduru, Imo State.
He thanked the leaders and delegates for their support describing his father as his leader. He also described Ikeduru as his home hence, nobody can intimidate him.
He said: "Pay Charlvon his payback and Akarachi his own otherwise Akarachi is being cheated because Akarachi is not Charlvon."
He appealed to the delegates to deliver him by the grace of God during the primary election stressing that he cannot play with his people and his God. He apologized to the leaders of Ikeduru for not coming around often to meet with them because he has been busy going to the people and described himself as a long distance runner due to the fact that for long, he has been preparing for the election.
Engr Amadi, who expressed gratitude to the leaders and delegates for their show of support and solidarity said he is only asking for a productive partnership with the people, which will be of great benefit to MBAIKE.
He reeled out his accomplishments so far in MBAIKE including the yearly football tournament for MBAIKE youths sponsored by Akarachi Foundation with the sum of N25 million naira, payment of Joint Admissions and Matriculation (JAMB), University Matriculation Examination (UME) fee for over 500 MBAIKE sons and daughters, attraction of roads from the Niger Delta Development Commission through his connections as a flourishing businessman, promising to do more if elected as the member representing MBAIKE in the Federal House of Representatives on the platform of the APC.
Speaking earlier, Prince Charls Amadi said the essence of the meeting is for the progress and good of Ikeduru APC Family.
He equally appealed to the people present not to allow the family to have a crack and debunked the rumour that Akarachi Amadi has stepped down.
In his words: " Let us remain as one."
In his reaction, Hon. Okey Ezuruike urged the people to support Akarachi because he has what it takes to turn things around. He pointed out that what Akarachi has done so far including construction of many roads is an indication of what is to come to MBAIKE when he gets elected.
He said Charlvon is relevant and synonymous with APC and extolled him for being accessible and a wonderful leader.
Hon. Ezuruike, further described Akarachi as a dynamic and vibrant achiever, who is very capable and urged the people to give total support by ensuring that Akarachi gets elected.
Prof Ajumbe while speaking urged the delegates to vote for Akarachi Amadi and extolled the Governor, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma, for doing a great job in Imo State especially the solid roads he has constructed. He promised to give total support to Akarachi because he stands for what is right.
Engr Nshirim urged Akarachi not to disappoint MBAIKE when he gets elected as nothing will stop him and called on the delegates to do the needful by voting for Akarachi, whom he described as a blessing to Mbaitoli and Ikeduru given what he has done so far.
Dr Teddy Oguike, said MBAIKE people are all witnesses to what Akarachi has done so far and stressed that people must separate Akarachi from Charlvon because Akarachi is a complete different entity with tremendous energy and capacity to deliver on democracy dividends, adding that Akarachi is his candidate. He also promised to cast his vote for him.
In her contribution, Mrs Shirley Amaonu ( the Ancient Queen) from Mbaitoli and board member, National Council of Women's Societies, NCWS, disclosed that she came out of political retirement mainly because of Akarachi Amadi's political ambition. She described Akarachi as her son, whom she said is highly cerebral with immense capacity to deliver.
The meeting was well-attended by dignitaries and political bigwigs too numerous to mention, from across the length and breadth of Ikeduru Local Government Area in solidarity with Akarachi project.
