 Anambra State Government urges Ndi Anambra to come out tomorrow and exercise their franchise.


‎The Anambra State Government has called on all eligible voters across the state to come out en masse and actively participate in the governorship election scheduled for Saturday.

‎The government emphasised that full voter participation is a fundamental expression of civic responsibility and a vital demonstration of commitment to democratic governance.

‎In a press statement on Friday, the state Commissioner for Information, Law Mefor, said active participation in this election is particularly important to reverse the low voter turnout recorded during the 2021 governorship election, when only about 200,000 of the over 2.7 million registered voters exercised their franchise.

‎He said, “The Anambra State Government calls on all eligible voters across the state to come out en masse and actively participate in the forthcoming governorship election scheduled for Saturday, November 8, 2025.

‎“Active participation in this election is particularly important to reverse the low voter turnout recorded during the 2021 governorship election, when only about 200,000 of the over 2.7 million registered voters exercised their franchise"

‎"As the Light of the Nation, Anambra has consistently taken the lead. Ndi Anambra should therefore, once again, lead by example by turning out in large numbers to vote peacefully and responsibly.”

‎The Chairman of the commission, Prof. Joash Amupitan, during a stakeholders meeting in Awka, said about 24,000 ad hoc staff will be deployed, while about 540 journalists have been accredited to cover the election, adding that the commission is fully committed to the governorship poll in line with its commitment to credible and inclusive elections.

‎According to INEC, 16 candidates from 16 political parties are contesting the governorship election to wrest power from the incumbent, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, who is also seeking reelection under the platform of APGA.
