MOGHALU RALLIES CHURCH SUPPORT FOR A NEW ANAMBRA
Says insecurity, neglect and poor leadership holding the state hostage
The Labour Party Governorship Candidate in Anambra State, Dr. George Moghalu, has urged the clergy and laity of the Church to stand as partners in the urgent mission to rebuild Anambra and restore her lost glory. He made the appeal during an interaction with the Methodist Church Nigeria, Diocese of Awka, at the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, Amaenyi, where he described the Church as a vital partner in shaping moral leadership and inspiring people-driven governance.
Dr. Moghalu lamented that Anambra, once a beacon of enterprise and education, has drifted into decline due to insecurity and lack of visionary governance. “Our state has not attracted any foreign investment because no investor will put money in an unsafe environment,” he said. “The educational system has collapsed, agriculture has been abandoned, and this government has not invested a single naira in that critical sector. Anambra deserves better; our people deserve leadership that truly serves.”
Drawing a contrast with developments in neighbouring Abia State, Moghalu praised Governor Alex Otti for his bold reforms and people-oriented leadership. “In just two years, Alex Otti has shown what vision and integrity can achieve through massive infrastructural renewal, fiscal discipline, and restored public confidence. That is the kind of leadership Anambra needs. Sadly, our own governor prefers to impress with grammar instead of impact,” he stated.
Reaffirming his faith and humility, the Labour Party flag bearer declared, “I come before you believing that power belongs to God and He gives it to whomever He wishes. I plead for your prayers, your faith, and your partnership. Pray for me, speak for me, and defend me. Together, with God on our side, we will build a new Anambra founded on justice, productivity, and hope. This state has everything it takes to prosper; all we need is the right leadership to unlock its greatness.”
