A coalition of House of Assembly candidates on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Enugu State, have dissociated themselves from the call for the postponement of tomorrow’s governorship and state assembly elections in the state, declaring that they “are ready for the election on Saturday as scheduled by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)”.

DAILY POST reports that the APC chairman, Barr. Ben Nwoye had on Thursday demanded the postponement of the exercise.

But in a terse statement signed by the group’s coordinator, Barr. Val Ikpa, the APC’s House of Assembly candidates, commended the state’s Resident Electoral Commission (REC), Emeka Ononamadu, and INEC “for their transparency in the preparation for the elections”.

Ikpa is the party’s candidate for Enugu East Urban Constituency.

They therefore, urged their teeming supporters to disregard such call and come out en masse to exercise their civic responsibility and avoid any act capable of jeopardizing peace in the state.

“We appeal to the APC leadership in Enugu State to release due logistics to candidates to enable them perfect their own side of obligation without delay”, the group stated.
