Senator Andy Uba, the All Progressives Congress (APC) senatorial candidate for Anambra South has lampooned his opponents including his own brother, Chief Chris Uba, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senatorial candidate for the same district…

“The Senate is a serious place to be. It is not a place for traders. But, what we see is that some people contesting the position with me cannot write their names and they want to be at the Senate.”

“It is disheartening that these young men who cannot write their names have abandoned their business to vie for political positions. This should not be so. Senate is not for traders or neophytes.”

“Any illiterate trader who goes to the Senate will not be able to sponsor a single bill in four years. Today, I can tell you that as a senator, I have sponsored the highest number of bills. Senate is not for illiterates and inexperienced persons.”

“For you to be reckoned with in the Senate, you must be a ranking senator.”
