An aspirant for the forthcoming Anambra South senatorial by-election, Prince Samben Nwosu, who recently resigned his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has formally joined the Young Progressive Party (YPP).
Nwosu said he left his former party on 6th January, 2025, over unfair treatment and embarrassment meted to him by those he described as political merchants within the PDP.
The former Federal Commissioner in the Public Complaints Commission (PCC) has officially been received into YPP by the state executive committee of the party, led by the state chairman, Prince Moses Obi.
Speaking during the ceremony, Nwosu said his decision to pursue his senatorial ambition through the YPP umbrella was based on the party's commitment to youth empowerment, good governance, and grassroots development; adding that he also shares the party's vision of a Nigeria where every citizen has access to quality education, healthcare, and economic opportunities.
He assured that as a member of the YPP, he would work closely with stakeholders across the senatorial district to develop and implement policies that would benefit the people; adding that he would prioritize transparency, accountability, and inclusivity in all his dealings - ensuring that every citizen has a voice and a stake in the collective progress.
He added: "I stand before you with a message of hope and a new wave of leadership. I am thrilled to announce my membership in the YPP, a party that shares my vision for a better Anambra South.
As we gather here today, I am reminded of the immense potentials that lie within our senatorial district. From the bustling markets of Nnewi to the fertile farmlands of Aguata, we have the resources, the talent, and the resilience to drive meaningful change.
However, we all know that our district faces numerous challenges, from inadequate infrastructure to poor healthcare services. As your senatorial representative, I pledge to work tirelessly to address these challenges and create opportunities for growth and development.
To my fellow party members, I offer my sincere gratitude for welcoming me into the YPP family. I look forward to working with you to build a stronger, more prosperous Anambra South.
To the good people of Anambra South, I ask for your support and trust as we embark on this new journey together. Let us join hands to create a brighter future for ourselves, our children, and generations to come."
Welcoming the new entrant, state chairman of YPP, Prince Moses Obi, described the senatorial aspirant as a golden fish that has no hiding place.
While expressing pleasure over Nwosu's decision to pursue his senatorial ambition under his party platform, Obi noted that another YPP senator replacing late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah in the person of Prince (Hon.) Samben Nwosu, is almost sacrosanct. He urged party members, and the entire voters in Anambra South to rally round Nwosu, to make the dream become a reality.
