All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA, governorship candidate in Anambra State, Chief Willie Obiano may be replaced by his first runner-up in the party primaries, Iyom Uche Ekwunife, following the problems he was experiencing over allegations of double registration as a voter.

Obiano allegedly registered as a voter in Lagos and registered again in Awka, the Anambra State capital instead of his ward in Aguleri town, Anambra East Local Government Area of the state.

The Anambra State voter's card with VIN number 90f5B15E7D378 was reportedly issued to Obiano on September 3, 2013.

Sources told Vanguard that following revelations of the double registration, the state Resident Electoral Commissioner, REC, Prof. Chukwuemeka Onukaogu had warned that the action would attract severe sanctions as provided in the Electoral Act.

Onukaogu explained that in an event of a voter relocating to another town, he or she could only apply for transfer of registration to his new location and not to engage in double registration, prompting the party to mull the idea of replacing the governorship candidate with Ekwunife, who is a member of the House of Representatives.

The state APGA chairman, Chief Mike Kwentoh, told reporters that the allegation of double registration was not true, adding that what Willie Obiano did was to ask for the transfer of his registration from Lagos to Anambra.

His words: "The allegation of double registration is not true. Obiano only transferred his registration from Lagos to Anambra State. People should disregard such stories and treat it as false.''

Obaino is a good man nah.

.

Sorry but Apga if they are to be judged with their recent displays in Anambra state, are nothing but a set of confused clowns.

Obiano's governorship aspiration is a fraud....a fraud that is falling apart like a badly built mud house.

They is no cause for alarm.
Some of these news stories are sponsored by his rivals. It's a sign they are jittery.

One thing I know is sure: APC will never win in Anambra

Obi's stooge is as confused as Obi himself. Bunch of confusionists in an already confused and dead party!

Siddon there make PATA and SINGLET dey wear you.

You carry TECNO phone for hand in LAGOS dey PROPHECY....when real people are on ground doing all that is necessary to ensure their best candidates win.


Yeye cushion chair general....fighting with his mouth instead of his hand!!!

I believe this man Obiano was not ready to rule Anambra State, they are just forcing him to do what he never planned for. If he was ready he would have registeted in Anambra State rather than Lagos State and he would not be thinking of transferring his voters card from state to state.

Fresh air for Ada anyi nwanyi na NRI: Iyom Uche Ekwunife
Hoping that something good comes out of this .

These people are making things easy for apc and ngige. With the confusion in apga and pdp bringing an unknown element, I see ngige having a flawless win. He has been tested before.

You'll come back to eat your words after November 16 my friend. That was how people like you who know nothing about politics said during the last general election that Yoruba party ACN can never win in Anambra.Now you have Senator Ngige who is still coming back to rule you as governor. Already you can see the main opposition parties APGA and PDP having tensions and commotion in their camp..That "boko haram" party APC, according to people like you is extending to Anambra come November 16 as it has done to Imo already. You guys need to learn the dynamics of Nigerian politics instead of sounding like clowns with your usual ranting, empty chest beating and never-ending ultimatums lol.

some body lied!!!

Nice joke

I laugh in Swahili.

Obiano has been cleared since and what he did was a transfer and not double registration.

Ngige will not even win in Idemili South where he is from and it happens to be my L.G.A. Mark my words.

November 16th things.

Don't quote.

Was he planning to one day run for Lagos state governorship under APGA....

GBAM!

THE APGA STATE CHAIRMAN SHOULD SAY THE TRUTH AND STAND BY IT.

THE STATEMENT BY THE REPORTER IS THAT A VOTER'S CARD WAS ISSUED TO OBIANO THIS OCTOBER IN ANAMBRA.

WHY ARE YOU TALKING OF HIS APPLYING FOR TRANSFER OF THE SAID CARD FROM LAGOS.

gregg2: One thing I know is sure: APC will never win in Anambra

BE wise!!! dont vote rather vote the candidate!!!

we need the best in anambra state.

I thought they said Obiano is a NOBODY in Anambra? So why are they sponsoring false claims to get him disqualified? I laugh in bantu! Willie Obiano is definitely the next Governor of Anambra state. even the goats and chickens in my state know that already.

Only someone that doesnt personally know that lady will allow her to get close to him/her let alone putting her in charge of anything let alone being in charge of a state.

We need decent men and women as public office holders not those that just want to line their pockets.

Lol, you harsh oo.
