ENDTIMEISNEAR:
The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has asserted that the upcoming November 11 governorship election in Imo State is not necessarily bound to proceed as scheduled.

Uchenna Ekwe, the NLC Head of International Relations, made this declaration during an interview on Channels TV on Wednesday. Ekwe emphasised that the Imo populace has been subjected to relentless violence, rendering the election ineffective.

He further stated that Imo workers have lost faith in the election’s ability to bring about any meaningful change.

Ekwe questioned, “Talking about the election, in Imo in particular, did the votes count? How did he (Hope Uzodinma) become governor? In Imo, is the place not terrorized?”

Go to Imo I challenge you, you won’t see a poster of any other party, you can’t even see a tiny poster of any other party. Get feedback from your correspondents in Imo, ask them in the whole street on Owerri whether there is a poster of any other party,” he challenged.

Ekwe expressed scepticism regarding the prospect of a credible election, citing the disruption of an INEC meeting. He maintained that workers and the general populace have lost confidence in the election’s ability to yield positive outcomes.

“How can you say election is coming up, INEC meeting was disrupted, how can you hope that there will be any election, we don’t have faith, even the workers don’t have faith that the election will determine anything, that is the truth,” Ekwe asserted.

“We don’t believe election in Imo will produce anything because the Imo people have been crushed, violence have taken over the place. We are not telling them not to come out to vote but the people will be scared to come out,” he added.

Ekwe said the world would not crumble if the election did not take place as planned.

“Must there be election in Imo, will the world end? Will the world end if there is no election in Imo State? No, the world would not end, we are not disrupting election,” he concluded.

Is this one a union leader or a politician? I will go with the latter.

He is now the official spokesman of the opposition parties.

NLC is by so doing working against the interest of democracy in Imo. They can be prosecuted for election interference, sabotage and tantamount to planning coup against democracy. This is a serious offence in America.

U re very silly, stop defending evil, how did somebody who came fourth in an election be forced to rule against people's choice. Hope uzodimma is a thug and a killer, my good people of Imo don't want him. Salaries and pension s are barely not been paid in the sate and u're here trying to justify it simply because u're benefiting from the useless APC leg govt.


It quiet simple, the other party involved in the election fail to give evidences that uphold they won ..
Uzodima that came 4th went to court just like Peter Obi that came 3rd believed he won.

NLC has no business being a mouthpiece of a political party, if salaries and Pensions are not being paid why did NLC wait till now

IF salaries and pension are not being paid why can't NLC face Uzodinma on a neutral ground why adulterated workers affair with politics

Ajaero should stop pretending and enter politics fulltime. His intention is to become an Oshiomhole in future but it can't happen because even his people of Owerri see him as a shady character. He has kept Imo state in darkness for a week just to make Uzodinma lose and help his labour party win. The t won't work for him.



IF not the Ajaero & NLC are anti people as the govt they antagonize, did plunging IMO into darkness affect Uzodinma, are they really punishing Uzodinma or they are just punishing the people of IMO they swore to protect.

IF Uzodinma should win how will NLC compensate the people for the darkness suffering inflicted on the residences

You see my problem with these people, little power and they want to destroy everything, the person closer to them is always their first target. Ajaero is a labour leader for Nigerians but he has turn it to a state affairs because he knows Uzodinma down to his compound. Election will take place in kogi, bayelsa and imo but Ajaero has picked imo state as his area of interest, he single out his brother as the only one who hasn't been paying salary, what happened to doing the same thing in kogi? Definitely he won't try it.

I have been here since a week before the Presidential Election, only left Imo today for Bayelsa, and then to Lag after the election.

1. There has been no light since Tuesday last week as a result of the Ajaero issue; it's not ending anytime soon.

2. There is no standing poster, billboard or whatever of any Party whatsoever, save for Hope's standing anywhere in Owerri.

3. Uzodimma will win with a landslide. Results you know, we knew how it went with other elections in February.

4. The word on the streets is that: s'ebi it's just 4 years let him do and go, nobody wants to get into the cross-fire. You will see the boycott on Saturday!

5. His opponents even have no clouts, the election ended the day Ihedioha bowed out of the contest.

6. That he will win is no news, he will win and win well.

He will struggle in owerri zone

Diri has tried but a Bayelsa Gov should do better considering their allocations. He is better than Dickson though!

He is 65% done, not because he has done too well but the APC chose a Candidate that is not liked.

Oga,Dickson performed well to be honest.after alams,Dickson is bayelsa best.diri failed.thank goodness you gave sylva 35% which is enough.men are cooking at bassambiri

Lyon knows sylva in and out. He knows why he isnt supporting sylva. Its also the same way sylva didnt support tinubu but chose lawan and funded his campaign in the primaries.

In a free and fair poll,hope will lose.the nlc matter,power blackout etc will make him lose more support.he has to be careful.plus him dropping his deputy for an unpopular person isn't good.lets not forget that he was against tinubu at the primary.

Kogi is tough.if the igalas give ajaka bloc votes,then it is bad for apc.natasha is stealing some ebira votes for dino

Tinubu is in charge of every state security wise.

Hope is playing the victim card right now. It might work in his fav. A lot of imo people would also want to concede the next 4 yrs to him so he can carry his wahala and go. Beyond that, hope is an enforcer and has been in the rigging game since pdp. The opposition is split and he has also reconciled with some of his foes, which might be why he has dropped his dep. Dont forget how strong his orlu zone is. This will all contrive to work in his favour.

In kogi, the ebira is planning bloc votes. I dont know, but i have a sneaky feeling apc will win. Yahaya inflated the voting populations in okehi and okene to match those of the igala, so the kingmakers are the kogi west.

Fubara has a new cp to work with. Wike has no influence over disu. Fubara should crawl close to the people and tinubu for his own political survival.

Some people close to aso rock wants hope to be dealt with.hope must fight alone.he needs to adopt carrot and stick approach.obi campaigning in imo has made it harder.he must adopt brutality for areas that are against him,buy votes heavily,induce voters,low turnout.apart from achonu area,most parts of okigwe will vote hope actually.people like tony chukwu,Miriam onuoha,chike okafor,ohakim etc will support him.i don't know of araraume.he will have issues in ideato because of rochas and hon ikenga.he will have in NINN axis because of hon onyereri and hon ugonna ozuruigbo ..he will inflate votes in orlu axis since he has bought over alagbaoso.uju Kingsley might give issues in oguta
Owerri won't vote hope same as ikeduru.i don't know where mbaise stands but there are anti apc.ngor okpala and mbaitoli are up for grabs..

The 4 mainstream ebira lgas will match dekina,ankpa,idah,ofu,omala,ibaji...igalamela,bassa, olamaboro will divide votes.ododo will win one of them.apc votes in lokoja axis will be the decider as I don't see sdp getting votes outside east.if they get bloc in kogi east,they won't get the spread.
