LEON USIGBE, notes how the crises in the main political parties in the Anambra state November 6 governorship election follow a familiar trend.
GOVERNORSHIP elections in Anambra State are historical for their rancour from the buildup to party primaries through the casting of votes to post-election legal battles. As soon as Chinwoke Mbadinuju emerged the governor of the state under the PDP following the 1999 poll, he fell out with his godfather, Emeka Offor. The consequences were grave thereafter. The power struggle between the duo crippled the state administration. Even when he apparently won a return ticket for the 2003 election, Mbadinuju was excluded from the ballot amid tussle with another power broker, Chris Uba, who preferred Dr Chris Ngige instead.
