Abuja-based real estate developer, Chief Jude Ezenwafor, has emerged the flag-bearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the upcoming November 8, 2025 Anambra State governorship election.
Leader of the PDP national committee mandated to conduct the party’s governorship primary election in the State, Col. Chijioke Onwubuya (rtd), declared Ezenwafor winner in the governorship primary election held on Tuesday at the Prof. Dora Akunyili Women Development Centre, Awka.
Ezenwafor contested for the PDP governorship ticket unopposed as he was the only aspirant who purchased the party’s nomination forms for the ticket.
A total of 853 delegates made up 839 elected from the 21 local government areas of the State and 14 national delegates were accredited to take part in the primary election.
Though Ezenwafor was the lone contestant, each delegate was issued a ballot paper to write the name of the candidate he or she preferred. The delegates cast their votes of affirmation local government area by local government area while the national delegates were the first to cast their ballots.
With the latest emergence of the PDP flag-bearer, a total of four political parties have so far nominated candidates for the Anambra State gubernatorial election.
