The Sun Newspaper Apologizes: Obi's Appointment Gov Ugwuanyi Not Against Obi by ochejoseph(m): 10:32am On Oct 15, 2018
SunNewspaper withdraws publication.
apologises to gov Ugwuanyi.


Sun Newspaper has just withdrawn its earlier publication in which it falsely claimed that gov Ugwuanyi of Enugu state rejected the appointment of Mr Peter Obi as the running mate of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and opted to work for President Muhammad Buhari reelection bid.

According to the statement signed by the Editor of Sun Newspaper, the publication titled, "Why South East govs, leaders moved against Obi as Atiku’s vice,” published in our sister publication, Sunday Sun, we erroneously stated that Governor of Enugu State, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, is vehemently opposed to the choice of former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, as running mate to PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, that he vowed to work for President Muhammadu Buhari in the presidential election next year."

The news media therefore said, "We have discovered that our reporter did not get his facts right. The Enugu State governor never issued the threat abscribed to him" and thereafter apologised to Gov Ugwuanyi, "We, therefore, apologise to Gov Ugwuanyi for the embarrassment the wrong representation may have caused him."


The full statement.

CORRIGENDUM
'Ugwuanyi not against Obi'
15th October 2018.


‘Ugwuanyi not against Obi’
In our story, “Why South East govs, leaders moved against Obi as Atiku’s vice,” published in our sister publication, Sunday Sun, we erroneously stated that Governor of Enugu State, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, is vehemently opposed to the choice of former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, as running mate to PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, that he vowed to work for President Muhammadu Buhari in the presidential election next year.
We have discovered that our reporter did not get his facts right. The Enugu State governor never issued the threat abscribed to him.
We, therefore, apologise to Gov Ugwuanyi for the embarrassment the wrong representation may have cause him.

Why would they be against Obi in the first place. If Atiku would ever pick someone from the southeast, who else would have been more qualified than Obi?

If you want to match Buhari's fake integrity mantra, you have to pick someone that is popularly know for their integrity.


Come 2019 Nigerians will Atikulate and free rtd. Gen Muhammadu Buhari from the shackles of the Cabal and let him be free to enjoy his retirement.
