Hello
@saharareporters
, this is false reportage and I demand that this information is immediately retracted, an apology extended and the correct representation shared with your audience.
I did not say this at the ECCIMA Meeting neither have I said this in any other engagement.
In an election marked by the late arrival of materials, violent attacks, and reports of rigging substantiated by international observers, it is unfortunate that
@inecnigeria
prioritised declaring a winner over addressing the concerns of Nigerians.
This is disappointing & unwise.

We have seen a few comments about the Labour Party effect. This is a valid concern.
But we must ask ourselves, what are the qualities in Peter Obi that made us support him?
Which of the candidates running have the same qualities of competence, character, capacity, and compassion?

Fake News: Frank Nweke Jr's Endorsement of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Our attention has been drawn to two news items concocted from the imagination of mischievous individuals and published on AnchorNews and TrendOnline platforms.
I have cast my vote, and I am glad to hear that there is a good turnout of voters across Enugu State. However, some reports reaching us indicate the late arrival of INEC officials in many PUs. Several polling units are yet to commence voting or just starting.
The man is a specimen of those to whom political power must never be handed to. He carried on as if there was no tomorrow. The man had no sense of responsibility. It’s doubtful he had a sense of self-awareness. Public service and public trust meant nothing to him. He was reckless…
I am always fascinated to hear young people in their late 20s and 30s share beautiful stories of how they first knew about me, as a Minister of the Federal Republic.

I am thankful for leaders such as former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Pa Adebanjo, Atedo Peterside, TY Danjuma, Samuel Ortom, Pastor Paul Enenche and many more people and groups who have openly supported and campaigned for an Obi presidency.

These final few days are critical to our success at the elections on Saturday. I encourage you to keep canvassing for votes from everyone around you.

Selective enforcement of rules is recipe for chaos. It promotes notion that citizens are unequal. Erodes public trust, promotes corruption & endangers society in pandemic situations like C19. Rule of law is a key development index.
I am stunned and deeply saddened by the news of the murder of Barrister Oyibo Chukwu, the Labour Party Senatorial Candidate for Enugu East and several others in a gruesome attack on Wednesday night by Amechi junction in Enugu.
Enugu State is now a shadow of its former self from what used to be the second cleanest State in the country. Under the current PDP-led administration, the State has become one of the dirtiest in the country.
Another lie in the news.
Ndi Enugu, your voices and votes are great threats.
Kindly let everyone know that APGA's Frank Nweke Jr. is in the race to win it for the good of Enugu. We will do it!

This is why it is a shock to me that a good number of the attacks against Mr. Peter Obi has come from our own people. I must make it clear that Obi is not an Igbo candidate.
Yes, I am excited. I am about to cast my vote in a most historic election.
INEC officials arrived 2 hours behind schedule at my PU in Ozalla, but accreditation and voting are going smoothly so far.
What is the situation report in your Polling Unit?
I completely condemn the attack on Professor Ben Odoh's convoy that led to the death of his driver and the disappearance of five persons. My heart goes out to the entire team, the bereaved family and the families of the missing persons.
Gratitude.
I may not be the most animated about celebrating my birthday but one thing I'm always filled with is gratitude. I am a blessed man and for that, I thank the good Lord.
Thank you all for your kind words and prayers.

For someone like me who has been an advocate of reclaiming our identity as a people of honour, hard work, and honesty, the leadership he has provided is one I am glad to support in its entirety.
I must also state that I am proudly Nigerian, and as many know, I grew up in different parts of the country and speak the three major languages. However, this fact co-exists with the reality that I am of Igbo extraction.
I will be addressing ndi Enugu via a press conference this morning at 9am about pertinent issues regarding the upcoming General Election of March 11, 2023.
The session will be livestreamed on Facebook .
Recently, while making a formal endorsement of Obi, Samuel Ortom, the governor of Benue State, asked ndi Igbo a critical question - "What do you want? What are you looking for?"
As I respect my brothers and sisters in the North, the South and the West who lay claim to their Nigerian citizenship but also recognize and promote their ethnic origin, I am not afraid to bear my father's name and speak up in the interest of our people.
Beautiful!
Well done, ndi Enugu.
