At last, the Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) has released the names of the governorship candidates who will fly the flags of the various political parties in the November 2013 governorship election. In all 23 candidates will slug it out for the chance to succeed Gov. Peter Obi as governor of Anambra state. INEC says it has made use of the court orders and the form submitted by parties to compile the names on its candidates list. Despite the efforts of the Chekwas Okorie faction of APGA to push its candidate, INEC recognised the candidate of the Victor Umeh/Peter Obi faction, Willie Obiano as the APGA candidate. For PDP, it was a sad tale for both Tony Nwoye and Andy Uba, the two candidates who were the frontrunners for the ticket and whose supporters had clashed during the PDP special convention. INEC recognised Nicholas Ukachukwu as the PDP candidate.
