A candidate for the Abia State Central senatorial ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Rep Sam Onuigbo, has urged those sponsoring media attacks on him to come clean on their roles in the whimsical allocation of votes during the May 18 senatorial primary of the party.
He noted that the sting of truth has stunned the architects of the ballot bazaar, which took place during the botched senatorial primary, stressing that as a result, the guilty have suddenly become afraid that their clandestine activities against APC are coming to light.
Onuigbo, who was responding to a media report dismissing the petition by well-meaning stakeholders of the APC in Abia Central senatorial district against the jumbled APC primary in the zone, urged the sponsors of the media reports to stop orchestrating further damage to the image and reputation of the APC in the Southeast.
Recall that a group, which described itself as the leaders of the Abia Central chapter of APC, had written a petition captioned: ‘Calculated Campaign of Falsehood’, and addressed to the National Chairman of the party, Prof Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, alleging that Onuigbo’s claims of irregularities in the primary were aimed at destabilizing the party ahead of the 2027 general election.
