Anambra Poll: Calls For ‘No Election’ Stupid, Illogical – UPP National Leader, Chekwas Okorie

Chekwa Okorie

National Chairman of the United Progressives Party, UPP, Chekwas Okorie, has berated those asking residents of Anambra State not to participate in the November governorship election in the state.

Okorie noted that the call for “no election” in Anambra and the South East is illogical and “stupid.”

Addressing newsmen in Awka, the state capital on Wednesday, Okorie said there were no articulated and acceptable reasons for insisting that election must not hold in the state and the region in general.

Okorie also noted that the Federal Government cannot agree to referendum in the South East because it’s not contained in the constitution.

He said, “To think that some young people, some of them educated are campaigning against Igbo participation in an election is unfortunate.

“Moreover, the reason for non participation has not being articulated by anyone of them, there is no reason they have given that makes sense at all.

“Saying that you want referendum and that government should give you referendum is so pedestrian an argument.

“Government cannot give you referendum because it does not exist in the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria where we belong.

“The only way you can go about it is to participate in democracy, elect a government that can pursue your wishes and aspirations.

“It is a stupid thing to say that there will be no election in Anambra.”

    They are not our leaders. Nobody appoints them. They are just political businessmen and women.
    They struggle to get that position with various attrocities in their hands that is why they dont care.

    You see! He’s not a leader yet, but he has already started insulting the people he wants to rule.
    How’s that democracy?

    Anyways I’m ok been called whatever name by these money mongers called politician.
    The only thing I wouldn’t do is to make their words true.
    A terrorist like me don’t have the right to vote.
    An imbecile or stupid person like me don’t; know how to vote or have a clue about elections.

    So i urge all Nigerian Politicians in the BIAFRA region to march out their families and relations to vote for them if they are not among the so called terrorist (Indigenous People of Biafra, Biafra) !

    We are first the Indigenous People of BIAFRA before Nigeria came.

    Now that the questions are out in the open, can anyone here help us out with the answers? We’re sure Nigerians would love to know.

    1. I ask our President, what has happened to the report on the $43m discovered in an apartment at Osbourne Towers, Ikoyi, Lagos?

    2. What has happened to the allegation of award of $25bn contracts without following due process made against Dr. Baru by Dr Ibe Kachikwu?

    3. What happened to the DSS indictment for corruption of Magu and the AGF Investigative Panel set up by the President?

    4. Who is the owner of LEGICO Shopping Plaza, Ahmadu Bello Way, VI, Lagos inside which the EFCC claimed that it found N448.8 million cash?

    5. Who brought the five sacks in which the EFCC claimed that it found N49 million cash to the Kaduna Airport?

    6. What happened to the probe panel on the alleged N500m bribery said to have been paid to the Chief of Staff (COS), Abba Kyari by MTN?

    7. Most importantly,, today is Saturday, what has happened to the report submitted on Tuesday on the fraudulent reinstatement of Maina?

    8. Is the President going to use APC broom to sweep the report on Maina under the carpet just as he did to others before it?
