Sir Paul Chukwuma, the former National Auditor of the All Progressives Congress – APC, Founder of Olivia University, Burundi, and Pro-Chancellor of Benue State University, has reignited his political machinery as he resumes political consultation. Chukwuma, adjudged as a major APC aspirant with enormous quality ahead of next year’s Anambra’s governorship election, had suspended all his political activities about a month ago, in honour of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah who before his sudden demise was also an aspirant for the governorship of Anambra State on the platform of the APC.
Reactivation of Sir Paul Chukwuma’s political activities ahead of the Anambra State governorship election around November of year 2025, commenced with consultative visits to some Anambra State stakeholders. During the visits, Mr. Chukwuma was at the home of Chief Vincent Udobi, a businessman of immense capacity and a former member of the Board of Trustees of APGA. Chief Udobi who received with delight Mr. Chukwuma and his team which included Senator Emma Anosike, a former member of the House of Representatives and former Anambra North Senator, as well as Hon. Chiedu Eluemunoh, a former member of the House of Representatives, among others, took the time to take the visitors round his imposing palm plantation.
In the farm plantation were thousands of tenera oil palm; a Malaysian palm breed with special yielding capability and oil production. Explaining the oil palm value chain, Chief Udobi told Sir Paul Chukwuma and his team, that the tenera oil palm is far more profitable than crude oil and that he intends to explore the entire value chain in the oil palm business relying on his palm plantation as a source of supply.
Impressed by what he saw on the ground, Chukwuma commended Udobi, reiterating that a focused and big-picture approach to farming which Udobi is demonstrating with his palm plantation, resonates with his plans for Anambra State on agriculture. According to Chukwuma, his vision for agriculture in Anambra State is one that encompasses doing big and coordinated things with the state’s comparative advantage in agriculture.
With the resumption of political activities by Mr. Chukwuma after a thirty-day break, the polity might soon be fully charged up; even as next year’s Anambra gubernatorial election will soon begin to count in months.
