The Campaign Organisation of the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the Anambra state November poll, Tony Nwoye has accused the state government, the ruling All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA and her agencies of “ meting unprovoked hostilities on the Tony Nwoye Campaign train in an attempt to cow it”.
It is bad enough that Governor Obiano and his team have imposed unreasonable levies on any candidate who wishes to mount campaign billboards or paste posters, yet he sends out his hoodlums to single out all billboards and posters belonging to Dr Tony Nwoye for onward destruction,” said the group in a statement signed by Chidi Arinze
Receipt showing Three million Naira paid by Tony Nwoye to ANSAA for billboards adverts
The group produced two photographs of the APC candidate’s destroyed campaign billboards and the receipt of three million Naira levy paid to the Anambra Signage and Advertisement Agency (ANSAA) by Hon. Dr Tony Nwoye for all his campaign adverts.

“This update is to put the reading public in the know of the wanton destruction perpetrated by members APGA in Anambra and her agencies. Dr Tony Nwoye, as a lover of peace has set all legal machineries in place to address this growing injustice. He has further admonished his teeming supporters to desist from contemplating or carrying out any form of reprisals. We hope that APGA and Governor Obiano will call their thugs to order, as this campaign must be issue based and devoid of any form of violence and acrimonious tendencies.”
