Posters of Mrs Justina Azuka, wife of slain Anambra lawmaker representing Onitsha North 1 constituency, Late Hon Justice Azuka has surfaced, showing her, seeking support to replace her demised husband.
Hon Justice Azuka was kidnapped in Onitsha on the eve of Christmas of 2024 while returning home for the yuletide. His decomposing body was later found at the foot of the Second Niger Bridge in February, despite rumours of payment of heavy ransom for his release.
Since after the confirmation of his death, there have been clamour for the wife, Mrs Justina Azuka to replace the late lawmaker, with many people appealing to Labour Party to nominate her as candidate.
Her poster has however surfaced as the candidate of African Democratic Congress (ADC), leading to controversy about why LP refused to give her their platform as compensation for her husband’s death.
Meanwhile, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) is fielding another lady from the Ikpeazu dynasty, Mimih Ikpeazu-Azikiwe for the contest.
