APC Leader, Barr. Emeka Abah, Condemns Enugu Bye-Election For State House Of Assembly, Accuses State Government of Manipulation

By -
The Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Udenu Local Government Area, Barr. Emeka Abah, has strongly criticized the conduct of yesterday’s State House of Assembly bye-election in Enugu South, describing it as a deliberate assault on democracy.

Barr. Abah, in a statement issued today, faulted the Enugu State Government for what he termed “a total lack of transparency and orchestrated sabotage to frustrate a credible electoral process.” According to him, several polling units were either deliberately delayed or completely obstructed from conducting elections, denying the people of that Constituency their constitutional right to freely choose their representative.

He further condemned what he called the “disgraceful and uncivilized behavior” meted out to the Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Chief Uche Nnaji, who was reportedly harassed by agents loyal to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) when he visited one of the voting centers. Barr. Abah described the incident as “a national embarrassment and a calculated insult, not just on the Minister, but on the Federal Government he represents.”

The APC leader noted that democracy thrives only when the will of the people is respected and protected. He urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to investigate the widespread irregularities and called on security agencies to ensure that such acts of intimidation, electoral malpractice, and disrespect to leaders never repeat themselves in future elections.

“Enugu State cannot continue to build democracy on the foundations of intimidation, manipulation, and disrespect for due process. What happened in Enugu South yesterday was not an election but a carefully orchestrated scheme to undermine the people’s voice,” Barr. Abah stated.

He, however, reassured APC supporters across the state to remain steadfast, insisting that the party will continue to stand for fairness, justice, and genuine democracy.

EXPOSING THE TRUTH: THE FACE OF THE  BRUTAL POLICE OFFICER DUMIRI.  For too long, the people of Obollo Afor have suffered at the hands of corrupt and brutal police officers. Today, we shine a light on one of the most notorious officer Inspector Dumiri badge number that we are still unable to get.  Inspector Dumiri has been terrorizing innocent citizens, extorting money, and brutalizing those who dare to resist. His actions have left a trail of victims, many of whom are too afraid to speak out. But we will not be silenced. We will not stand idly by while Officer Dumiri continues to abuse his power and destroy lives. This is the face of police brutality. This is the face of corruption.

THE PEOPLE DEMAND JUSTICE We demand that Officer Dumiri be held accountable for his actions. We demand that he be stripped of his badge and brought to justice....
