The attention of the Sen. Ayogu Eze Governorship Campaign Organisation has been drawn to false stories making the rounds that an observer was shot in our principal’s premises while he was in the village for the governorship and state assembly elections.

The true story is that Sen. Eze’s residence was stormed by two vehicles with Enugu State Government registration numbers, claiming to be carrying election observers. While one of them drove inside the senator’s compound, the other stayed outside the gate.



The vehicles had their numbers masked, rousing the curiosity of our supporters who unmasked them only to reveal the Enugu State number plates.

The crowd numbering nearly 10,000 people saw this as unwarranted intrusion, especially as they saw the face cap of the PDP governorship candidate for the election in one of the vehicles and sought to quiz the occupants of the vehicles on their mission.

The atmosphere expectedly turned rowdy suddenly, forcing one of the police officers in the premises to shoot into the air to disperse the crowd. His hand obviously slipped, according to eyewitnesses, and he shot one of the All Progressives Congress, APC, supporters, who passed on while being conveyed to the hospital.

The affected police officer has also been handed over to law enforcement agents who are currently handling the matter in accordance with their service rules.

The so called observers whose identities were questionable were released to the Igbo Eze North Divisional Police Officer, Mr. Samuel Ngwu Attah following the intervention of Sen. Eze immediately his attention was drawn to the incident.

No observer was killed in our principal’s house or anywhere near it. What is circulating in the social media is pure fake news, obviously fabricated by those who sent the team to the house of the governorship candidate.

We see this fake story as part of the coordinated assault on the democratic rights of our principal, who has remained calm in the face of severe provocation.

We hope that with this clarification the authors of this willfully spurn tale by the moonlight will see the need to leave Sen. Eze alone.

This supposed disclaimer does not in any way exonerate ayogu eze from the extrajudicial killings synonymous with the APC, d law enforcement agents whom are supposed to be neutral have bn compromised n av bn turned into mere thugs at and for the pleasure of all APC candidates nationwide, 85% of deaths recorded in d conduct of this election so far is as a fact linked to the military and Npf at the instructions of APC stalwarts and candidates. Nigerians are watching and I want u guys never to forget that power is transient, my prayer for all of u in APC walking around now like immortals is dat u stay alive to reap all the evil u have sown....
An innocent life was lost consequent upon the rascality ur blood sucking APC government have embedded into the psyche of our security operatives and all u could do instead of taking responsibility is issuing a damage control statement....
U are all heartless demons at APC...

The pdp chief wailer has wailed. We don hear.
Very funny at transient power, when jona held sway and intimidated opposition members, ekiti comes to mind, wailers like you went dancing unclad at the market square!
You're right, power is indeed transient.
