The Labour Party (LP) governorship candidate, Dr George Moghalu, has called on the Church to partner with him in what he describes as a collective effort to rebuild the state and restore its lost glory. Speaking at the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, Amaenyi, Methodist Church, Diocese of Awka, Moghalu said the Church remained a vital partner in shaping moral leadership and promoting people-oriented governance. He lamented that Anambra, once known for enterprise and educational excellence, had experienced decline due to insecurity and lack of visionary leadership. “Our state has not attracted foreign investment because no investor will put money in an unsafe environment. The educational system has collapsed, agriculture has been neglected, and the government has not invested adequately in that critical sector. Anambra deserves better; our people deserve leadership that truly serves,” Moghalu said. The LP candidate drew comparisons with neighbouring Abia State, commending Governor Alex Otti for what he described as bold reforms and people-focused leadership.

That is the kind of leadership Anambra needs,” he stated. Reaffirming his faith, Moghalu said his ambition was guided by divine conviction and a commitment to serve. “I come before you believing that power belongs to God and He gives it to whomever He wills. I ask for your prayers, faith, and partnership. With God on our side, we will build a new Anambra founded on justice, productivity, and hope. This state has everything it takes to prosper; all we need is the right leadership to unlock its greatness,” he added.
