Hon. Mrs. Uche Ekwunife Campaign Organization RESPONDS TO BILLBOARD DESTRUCTION

The attention of the Hon. Mrs. Uche Ekwunife’s Senatorial Campaign Organization and indeed, that of the whole World, have been drawn to a disparagingly mischievous report/allegation linking the towering personality of Iyom and her highly principled/respected Campaign Organization of Uche Ekwunife for Senate in the unfortunate destruction of a certain Victor Umeh’s Campaign Billboards.
We want to state unequivocally and for the avoidance of doubt that our principal and flag-bearer for PDP in the Anambra Central Senatorial Election, Hon. Mrs. Uche Ekwunife does not engage in any improper conduct in her entire campaign and neither does she employ miscreants in her Campaign Organization as seen in that ofher APGA opponent, Victor Umeh who detailed his men and Chairmen of Local Government Councils to embark on wanton destruction of Uche Ekwunife’s billboards and campaign outfits under the guise of the kangaroo legislation recently enacted by the State Assembly.
A case in point is the recent action of the Awka North LGA Chairman, Mr.Cosmos Okonkwo who was seen beating up and harassing one of our supporters, Mr. Lawrence Nwoye from Urum in Awka North LGA when he caught them removing our billboards and posters during the pastoral, visit of the Bishop of Awka in Urum recently.
The report of the activities of the local vigilantes under the clear instructions of Victor Umeh to remove our billboards, posters and beat up the people fixing the posters of Chief Mrs. Uche Ekwunife’s in Idemili North and South, Anaocha, Njikoka and Awka North, the said activities of these vigilantes have gone a long way to justify Victor Umeh’s claims that he has the capacity for violence as indicated in his allegations. Of course one will not be surprised that he sounds this way because he enjoys the support of the State Government and that of the Chairmen of the Local Governments that he single-handedly installed.
The recent obnoxious legislation by the State Assembly among other things gave him the impetus to state in black and white that he has the monopoly of violence.
It is at this point that we want to call on Victor Umeh and his notorious campaign organization to avert their minds to those that they have stepped on their toes. It is a known fact that Victor Umeh has created a web of global enmity in the manner in which he conducted the APGA primaries in Abia, Imo, Ebonyi and Enugu States where he collected huge sums of money from aspirants and later dumped them.
In Anambra State particularly, virtually all the wards, he has enemies either those he failed in the Local Government Councillorship elections or those he failed to bring into APGA fold because of their loyalty to the former Governor.
At this juncture, we want to call on all security agencies to immediately commence proper investigation with a view to bringing the culprits to book. We in the Campaign Organization of Dr. Mrs. Uche Ekwunife are law abiding and respect constituted authorities.
The world is watching with keen interest!
