Anambra Election: INEC Officials Abandon Uzokwa Ward 3

Anambra Election: INEC Officials Abandon Uzokwa Ward 3 With 20 PUs

No electoral official have been reportedly sighted in Abobot Girls Secondary School, Uzokwa Ward 3 of Ihiala Local Government Area of Anambra State.

The ward alone, according to reports, has no fewer than 20 Polling Units.

It was gathered that the Uzokwa ward is just a stone throw from the Ihiala Local Government Area Headquarters, yet no staff of the Independent National Electoral Commission has been positioned there to proceed with the last lap of the state governorship election.

Meanwhile, a chieftain of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Victor Umeh was not allowed in on Tuesday morning by security forces into Ihiala local government headquarter.

Umeh who is said to have arrived at the LGA headquarters with other party members was opposed by the GOC, 82 Division for showing up where they shouldn’t be.

“You are not supposed to be here,” the GOC reportedly screamed at Umeh who insisted that he was there “to ensure things go well”.

Information gathered that the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the Anambra governorship election, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo has started celebrating his victory.

In a post on his Facebook page on Tuesday morning, Soludo stated he is already the winner of the election, saying that the race is “over”.

He wrote: “Let’s do simple math. Ihiala has 148,000 registered voters but only 42,000 voters picked up their PVC. So INEC statistics shows that you won’t get more than 42,000 votes in Ihiala. It is game over.”
