Chief Okey Ezenwa, Anambra Coordinator of Renewed Hope Ambassadors (RHA), has challenged candidates of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) claiming to support President Bola Tinubu’s re-election to display his photographs on their campaign materials.
Ezenwa made the call in a communiqué issued at the end of a meeting of zonal and Local Government Area (LGA) coordinators of RHA, held in Awka.
He expressed concern that some APGA candidates claiming to support the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Tinubu’s re-election did not feature the President’s photographs on their posters, billboards and other campaign materials.
The communiqué described the situation as misleading and unacceptable, insisting that the RHA would not support any form of covert or ‘closet’ support for the President.
It said the Anambra chapter of RHA had established a grassroots mobilisation structure comprising 25 canvassers in each of the 5,720 polling units across the state, translating to a potential support base of 143,000 canvassers.
It further stated that the structure comprised 21 LGA coordinators, 326 ward coordinators, 11-member LGA committees and 10-member ward steering committees.
According to the communiqué, the structure is expected to complement the support of members’ families and other supporters ahead of the Jan. 16, 2027 presidential election.
The meeting also resolved to convene a meeting with all APC candidates for the National and State Assemblies in Anambra to agree on a strategic direction, expressing concern over what it described as the apparent inactivity of the party’s state chapter.
It reaffirmed that RHA remained a major political mobilisation structure supporting APC candidates in presidential, National Assembly and State Assembly elections.
The coordinators consequently directed all zonal, LGA and ward officials to intensify grassroots mobilisation for Tinubu’s re-election.
They also pledged full participation in the presidential rallies scheduled for Nov. 19 in Awka and Nov. 29 in Enugu.
The meeting commended the Director-General of RHA, Sen. Hope Uzodimma, for his efforts in mobilising support across the country for Tinubu.
