Dr Alex Otti, the immediate past Managing Director of Diamond Bank has being listed as the authentic candidate of the All Progressive Grand Alliance(APGA ) in next month’s gubernatorial election in Abia State by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
The list has put to an end the controversy in the state’s chapter of the party as both Otti and Chief Reagan Ufomba emerged from different primaries, hitherto laid claims to the ticket.
According to the list published by INEC at its state office in Umuahia on Tuesday evening, Otti was named as the original governorship candidate of APGA, with Mrs. Uche Eme-Uche as his running mate.
APGA’s candidate was omitted from the list of governorship candidates earlier made public by INEC, and this led to speculations that the party might not have a representative at the governorship poll.
In the list, Otti’s registration number was quoted as “179955”.
Other gubernatorial candidates display on the list at INEC office include: Chief Chikwe Udensi of the Progressive Peoples Alliance, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party and Chief Chinenye Nyerere Anyim of the All Progressives Congress.
