Orjii Kalu & Mao Ohuabunwa. |
The
attention of the campaign office of former governor of Abia State and
senator-elect for Abia North senatorial district, Dr. Orji Uzor-Kalu has been
drawn to fake reports circulating on social media that the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared the National Assembly election in Abia
North Senatorial district inconclusive, the Orji Kalu Media office has therefore
taken a swipe on the incumbent senator, Mao Ohuabunwa of the People's
Democratic Party (PDP) for misleading the general public.
INEC
returning officer for Abia North Senatorial zone, Dr. Charles Anumudu had on
Sunday, February 24, 2019 in the presence of all other party agents and
the media at Ohafia Girls Secondary School (OGS), Amaekpu Ohafia, Ohafia LGA of
Abia state declared former governor of Abia state, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu of the
All Progressives Congress (APC) winner of the senatorial election.
Orjir
Kalu polled 31, 208 votes beating Ohuabunwa , who scored 20, 801 votes and
Chief DAvid Onuoha-Bourdex of All Progressives Grand Alliance(APGA) 11,410
votes.
Upon
declaration of the results by the designated returning officer, we expect all
contestants to accept the results in good faith or seek redress in the court of
law.
We
are by statement advising the general public to disregard the malicious and
fake news being circulated by the PDP candidate and his cohorts.
While
expressing our gratitude to the people of Abia North for their unflinching
support for Kalu and the APC, we urge members of our party to remain calm and
steadfast.
