The All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) chairmanship candidate in the forthcoming local government elections in Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu state, Mazi Harry Ugwuanyi has alleged that the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in connivance with the Enugu State Independent Electoral Commission (ENSIEC) have perfected plans to manipulate the forthcoming local government elections in Enugu state to favour PDP.


Mazi Ugwuanyi made the allegation while addressing his party members and supporters at the Ibagwa-Ani/Ibagwa-Agu/Okpaligbo ward in Nsukka L.G.A of Enugu state during a reception ceremony organized by the party menmbers and supporters in honour of the party concillorship candidate for the ward, Mazi Ifeanyi Ernest Obetta at Ibagwa-Ani. Mazi Ugwauanyi alleged that from an authoritation information gotten from one of the PDP chieftain in Nsukka L.G.A. reveals that the Peoples Democratic Party had on saturday , the 9th day of September, 2017 perfected and sealed plans with ENSIEC to manipulate the forthcoming local government elections slated on the 4th November in favour of PDP.

He therefore called on the well-meaning people of Enugu State to reject the imposition of candidates on them by the incumbent powers, stressing that APGA must do everything possible to resist any form of manipulations and rigging by PDP.

In his welcome address, Hon. Emmanuel Ejiofor Omeje, the APGA chairmanship running mate in Nsukka L.G. called on the people of the ward to come out en mass and vote out the party that has failed to deliver the dividend of democracy to the people. He maintained that the time for imposition of candidates on the people is far gone as the people have the right to choose who governs them.
Hon. Omeje insisted that APGA is the only party that has the interest of Igbos and Nigerians at heart, and also has the capability and man-power to clean-up the mess by the current and past administrations in Enugu state.

The event was graced by prominent men and women within and outside Ibagwa-Ani/Ibagwa-Agu/Okaligbo ward.
