The governorship candidate of the Labour Party in Anambra State, Chief Ifeanyi Ubah, has asked his opponent in the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Chief Willie Obiano, to as a matter of decency, hide his head in shame and drop out of the race for cheating during one of the governorship debates.

Ubah, in a media statement at the weekend, said all the debaters had received an instruction from the organisers of the debate not to attend with prepared text, and that to read from a prepared document during the debate would be treated as cheating since they were meant to speak extempore.

Ubah who claimed to have caught Obiano flouting the rules of the game by reading his answers from a prepared text which he kept hidden from peoples’ view, added that Obiano violated the rules and should hide his face in shame.

An angry Ubah however, walked up to Obiano’s lectern, brought out the prepared notes from him and exposed the fraud, adding that the standard instruction that nobody should read from prepared notes was totally and fraudulently flouted by somebody who wanted to be the governor of Anambra State.


He therefoere condemned the cheating and called on the people of Anambra State to vow that such a person who has no respect for rules would not be allowed to govern Anambra State. He said cheating was cheating and that anybody who cheats in small matters will also cheat in great ones.
