TRADITIONAL rulers from Idemili North and South local government areas of Anambra State have denied their reported endorsement of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar for the 2023 election.

In a statement issued yesterday by the chairman of the forum of the royal fathers, Igwe Chuma Agbala, and the vice-chairman, Igwe Nick Obi, the traditional rulers said the trending report was a misrepresentation of what happened during their meeting at Ogidi during their quarterly meeting.

According to them, what happened was that one of their illustrious sons, Dr. Obiora Okonkwo, visited them during the said meeting and informed them of his new position in his party, the PDP, as the presidential campaign coordinator and nothing more.

The monarchs said they were surprised that some people twisted the account of what happened at the meeting for reasons best known to them; adding that they were totally embarrassed by that ugly development.

Their statement read: “The publication or information circulating in the news media of the purported endorsement of the PDP presidential candidate is not true.

“The fact is that the Idemili North and South Traditional Rulers Forum held its quarterly meeting at the Idemili North local government headquarters, Ogidi where Chief Obiora Okonkwo came and said that he was appointed as one of the PDP Anambra State coordinators.

“That was it, and there was nothing like the endorsement of any political party or its flag bearer.

“We, the traditional rulers of Idemili North and South, do not indulge in partisan politics and as such would not endorse or move to endorse any political party’s candidate. We are royal fathers and hence are fathers to all.”

Lol

Back and forth

Deny or fact?

Emilokan and his group of urchins are so desperate over fake endorsements

AA have joined them with fake endorsements.

Meanwhile what the two disasters are killing themselves for , Peter obi- Ahmed Datti is getting it without stress.

Fake news the fear of getting killed by ipob terrorist.

I knew it was false or fake news

I hope our politicians know that endorsement doesn't win elections. People are collecting money and go ahead in voting their conscience.

Atiku the runaway Cameroonian and Thiefn.ubu are always in the news for the wrong reasons.

Endorsement are mind games.
One man, one vote.

Kikiki... But why nairaland useless like manna? This has been trending on Twitter all day but I haven't seen it here why, only useless biased topics with useless headings.

Either they endoes atiku or not atiku by God grace will win

Atiku is selfish, nobody have the monopoly of leadership.

The north have failed Nigerians in leadership and they still want to cling unto power Haba it will no longer be business as usual.


This Not wike alone it is Nigerian project!

Atiku claim to be a unifier,if he was he wouldn't have contested power should move to the south With what Buhari did in appointing only Muslims in key positions in the country every right thinking person will be scared of voting another northerner again!

Gov Wike is a strong pillar. The political high tension. Atiku, Tambuwal, Saraki, Dino, Kwankwaso n others in 2015 turned PDP into an opposition party. They betrayed Jonathan and PDP. They are all Scavengers, including Babangida Aliyu n Sule Lamido. Pay back time is now. Operations Reject Atiku Abubakar coming soon.

EMILOKAN
OBIDATTI ✅ 2023

That is my local Government Area and I was suprised when I read that news

Atiku Can buy any traditional ruler in the South East, but cannot buy Igwe Achebe, the Obi of Onitsha. Dem no born ham well.

Lol bad market for propagandists

Atiku and Tinubu is too desperate, but only few is seeing it...

We keep telling them that Obi has SE 90% under lock and key.

I was wondering.. how on earth!

Endorsement indeed.
