GOVERNOR UMAHI HAS ONLY RECHOED HIS RESOLVE TO UPHOLD THE OUTCOME OF THE RECENT APC PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY.

Our attention has been drawn to insinuations in some quarters suggesting that the Ebonyi State Governor, Engr. David Umahi, FNSE, FNATE has specifically asked Ebonyi People not to vote for a particular candidate in the 2023 Presidential election.

Without joining issues with the purveyors of this twisted and misleading information, we have elected to make a few clarifications for better comprehension by discerning minds.

1. Governor Umahi understands that all Citizens have freedom of choice of Candidates.

2. However, you would recall that while making his speech during the just concluded Presidential Primary at the Eagle Square, Abuja, Governor Umahi did promise to abide by the outcome of the election by supporting whoever eventually becomes the Standard Bearer of the Party.

3. What Governor Umahi did during a Stakeholders' meeting on Monday was in the spirit of sportsmanship to emphasize his earlier resolve to support the eventual winner of the Presidential election who later turned out to be Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu.

4. The statement by Governor Umahi by all standards only underscored his determination to live up to his earlier comment of supporting the Party's Standard Bearer.

5. However, Governor Umahi has not hidden his displeasure with the role of most of the political actors of the SouthEast who are only self-serving and not honest about the agitation of having a Nigerian President from the zone. He underscored the fact that the stakeholders of the zone are not yet determined to take their destinies into their hands which is obviously visible in their character.

6. Furthermore, it is pertinent to observe that if anyone wants the support and vote of Ebonyians, let such person switch to the All Progressives Party, APC, as Ebonyi State under the leadership of Governor David Umahi, is an APC state and as such, don't play double standard, knowing that it is difficult and near impossible to be kissing and vomiting at the same time.

7. The general public is encouraged to see it from the lens of obedience to the supremacy of the Political Party.

8. All and sundry are advised to disregard the hapless hypothesis which was only concocted for the self-aggrandizement of those spreading it

Evil party... party of lies and fake promises... problem of Nigeria at the moment...

Damage control

Foolish man.He has realized how damaging that comment is to his own senatorial ambition.

Of course he knows Tinubu is going no where

Fair enough.

he is still saying he supports Tinubu his party candidate


wonderful party man

leave the headline and read the content of the press release he's saying the same thing, adding salt to you guys injuries

Be more careful next when giving opinions,naija media fit twist mata for Africa

why are people castigating him

should he not support his own party candidate ?

not supporting tinubu would mean anti-party activities and he would be punished for it


umahi stick with tinubu i stand with you


apc in ebonyi is till eternity

Confusion is nobody's mate

Apart from lies and deceiving the citizens, what else can our politicians offer Nigerians

We don't care what you say, we will Obidiently follow our mind, but rest assured that we Yoruba Christian's will never vote Muslim muslim ticket

I read through the write but couldn't see where he denied making such comment...

Engr. Dave Umahi may be topnotch in infrastructure, but he has to learn to guard his utterances. Leadership goes beyond infrastructural development.

That's why you need a media aid

Why is he talking like that? Ibos don't even like that Obi ... nobody will vote for him.. he is a nobody



Click like for Obi

Share for Atiku/tinubu

Your megalomania attitude will be put in check come 2023, you will be shot back to political oblivion.

Hmmm... Time of denial

Dem don drag him papa tire,he thinks igbos do follow follow politics. We vote for candidate not party.

Support Tinubu, don't be an emperor

The people are with Peter Obi

The ordersity.
Even Sanwo has not told lagosians to vote Tinubu, na thìs presidential wanabe is dishing out orders.
Always complaining. He left PDP quoting that they don't care about SE, now joined APC and lost now blaming ohanézè. Same person that wants Igbo presidency still tell Igbo People not to vote their own.

Umahi never know how far.

Damage control

From the lens of obidience. Wise one.

Obi is coming.

Noted

Evil faction

Big fool.

He has seen the backlash and quickly changed mouth.

If he doesn’t take time, Ebonyi people will get angry and not vote for Nwifuru.

Onye ala!
