But when contacted on phone, the state’s Publicity Secretary of PDP Chief Uchechi Ogbuka, insisted that there was congress in the state, challenging those with contrary views to produce their evidence.
Similarly, Special Adviser to Gov. Theodore Orji on Media , Mr. Ugochukwu Emezue, dismissed the allegation that government officials brought fake result sheets to the electoral panel at a hotel as “ the figment of the imagination of the grieved politicians,” saying that during political season “all sorts of allegations are fabricated.”
He said that the governor is a committed democrat and could not be involved in any electoral fraud, dismissing the allegation as a blatant lie aimed at whipping up sentiments.
