Ahead of Saturday's Governorship and State House of Assembly election in Abia State, Governor Okezie Ikpeazu has been accused of being desperate to win at all cost, Igbere TV reports.

This was as a group, Abia Youths for Good Governance (AYGG), warned that such acts of desperation must be resisted by all.

In a statement by the group's Co-ordinator, Ben Akaranta, and made available to Igbere TV, AYGG said the governor has been dishing out threats to innocent voters in a bid to cow and intimidate them.

He quoted Ikpeazu as saying he would make the state ungovernable if he loses re-election.

Akaranta accused Ikpeazu of concluding plans to kidnap the Returning Officer for the election, and force him to announce already prepared results.

Full Statement,

“In another desperate move to sway innocent Abia youths, Ikpeazu holds an urgent meeting with Ukwa Ngwa youths and subtly, dished out another threat.

“He said, “I know I will loose the election if properly policed, but be ready for riots and ungovernable situation in the state.”

“This is what happens when you take up mantle of leadership unprepared, and after 4yrs, you couldn’t do anything for the state and not even to the collective people, whom you got into power by their agreed quota in the name of equity.

“Our source also revealed that Ikpeazu plans to kidnap the returning officer for the Saturday election, keep him where he willl announce the fake result he has already prepared.

“It’s no more news that electoral sensitive and non sensitive materials has wrongly entered the hands of Abia State PDP led government. And we have also heard it from reliable sources that thumb-printing of ballot papers are on going in a lot of PDP stalwarts houses across the state.

“In Isuikwuato, it’s said to be in Chief Greg Ibe’s house in Uturu, the TC chairman’s house, Chima Agbaeze. While in Umunneochi LGA, the PDP are thumb-printing in Chief Chris Odinaka Igwe’s house. Same In Umuahia, where Hon. Chinedu Orji and his father T. A. Orji are doing same in hotels. This is a practice across the state.

“The Abia people will resist any form of rigging the Saturday’s election by the PDP State government, the security agencies should as a matter of urgency, beam their search light towards the Abia PDP chieftains.

“We will not allow another 4 years of stagnation, unpaid salaries and wages of civil servants and negligence of the pensioners, who devoted their lives in serving the State but ended up being left to die in abject poverty by the PDP led State government,” the statement read.
