Monday, 28th August 2017 was another shocking moment in the lives of the teeming fans of the billionaire businessman Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah as one of his closest political rivals Chief Oseloka Obaze graciously emerged as the gubernatorial candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), thereby making the latter eligible to fly the party’s flag in the fast approaching November 18 governorship election in Anambra State, Nigeria.

Chief Obaze defeated the well-celebrated oil mogul, Dr. Ubah as well as Alex Obiogbulu and Sen. Stella Oduah, to clinch the ticket of the party.
A total of 958 delegates took part in the one-day exercise, and at the end, Chief Obaze - a former Secretary to the State Government - emerged victorious with 672 votes, while Mr. Obiogbolu came a distant second with 190 votes. Dr. Ubah could only garner 94 votes to place third, while two votes were declared as invalid.
It's noteworthy that three other contestants, John Emeka, a former Minister; Linda Ikpeazu, representing Onitsha North and South Federal Constituency in the Federal House of Representatives, and Akaolisa Ufodike, had earlier announced their withdrawal from the race.
