Anambra Election: Gov Umahi Opens Up On Accusing Soludo, Gov Obiano Of Rigging Election
Ebonyi State Governor Dave Umahi has denied allegations that he accused the All Progressives Grand Alliance, or APGA, of rigging the inconclusive governorship race in Anambra State.
According to reports, Umahi, who allegedly rejected the already-announced governorship election results in Anambra State, said the election was marred by anomalies.
He was alleged to have accused his Anambra State counterpart, Willie Obiano, and APGA’s governorship candidate, Charles Soludo of rigging the poll.
But, Umahi absolved himself of issuing any comment regarding the ongoing election.
In a statement by his media aide, Nwaze Francis, the Governor denied claims of him saying the All Progressives Congress, APC, won’t accept the outcome of the election.
According to Umahi: “Our attention has been drawn to an infantile Facebook post on the timeline of one Chijinkem, alleging that the Governor of Ebonyi State, Engr David Umahi, declared that the last Saturday’s gubernatorial election in Anambra was fret with irregularities.
Exposed!! Popular Abuja doctor revealed how men can naturally and permanently cure poor erection, quick ejaculation, small and shameful manhood without side effects. Even if you are hypertensive or diabetic . Stop the use of hard drugs for sex!! It kills!
“The poster equally implied that the Governor rejects the outcome on behalf of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and people of Anambra State and threatened to seek redress.
“First, His Excellency, Governor David Umahi, at no point, made such remarks about the Anambra State Gubernatorial election.
“It is, however, uncomplimentary to imagine His Excellency speaking on behalf of the Standard-bearer of the APC and a Party that has a full-fledged structure, moreover, in an election that its outcome has not been concluded by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
“We also like to use this medium to remind the poster and other Social Media purveyors of fake news that the State Law on fake news is very much in place to deal with potential recalcitrant.”
He urged Nigerians to disregard the report because he never made such a comment.
