BREAKING NEWS: APC AT IT AGAIN! #Chris Ngige Would Want To Manipulate The Electoral Says Anambra’s REC Prof Onukogu# The Resident Electoral Commissioner for Anambra State, Prof Chukwuemeka Onukogu says APC candidate in the gubernatorial elections Dr. Chris Ngige is not sincere. Professor Onukogu was speaking with SaharaTV in reaction to an earlier statement made by Dr. Ngige to the effect that Professor Onukogu could not be trusted to conduct a free and fair election going by his conduct in the 2011 elections. Apart from the fact that Chris himself is not sincere, Chris is one who would want to manipulate the system Professor Onukogu said. He added that Dr. Ngige was not being objective when he described him as partial since his state is the only one which has had more than 3 different political parties winning seats in the national and state assembly. The INEC Commissioner debunked assertions that there was low voter turnout as a result of heavy military and police presence in the state during the voting exercise. There has been an inherent voter apathy in Anambra State. Anambra State is one state in the country where moneybags hijack the electoral system and try to manipulate the electoral system to suit themselves, he said. He said politicians in Anambra state are noted for issuing empty promises in a bid to win elections and fail to deliver afterwards. According to him, the voters have began seeing through politicians tricks and have thus reacted by not turning up to vote at all, leading to the low turnout. He said the turnout this year was actually better than that 2011, an election he also conducted.
