Kenneth Okonkwo, spokesman for the presidential campaign council of the Labour Party, has slammed Prof Maduebisisi Iwo, the Enugu State Returning Officer, who confessed that the state’s gubernatorial election results which he announced was given to him by the Independent National Electoral Commission in Abuja.
The Prof, who is under fire from Nigerians, had announced Peter Mbah of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the winner of the gubernatorial election in Enugu state instead of Chijioke Edeoga of the Labour Party whom many said won the poll.
Reacting to this, Kenneth Okonkwo said: “Cowards die many times before their death – Julius Caesar. Abia Returning Officer rejected to be intimidated and refused to announce rigged result, while Enugu Returning Officer confessed that he was given a figure to announce by the corrupt Abuja INEC officials and he acted under duress and announced what was given to him, and this is supposed to be a Professor and somebody’s father. God forbid!! God save our country.
“They stole our presidential mandate and now they stole our gubernatorial mandate. By the grace of God, we will recover all. I have received assurances from Chijioke Edeoga that he will reclaim his mandate. Evil will never triumph over good.
