Ihedioha will be declared governor – Okewulonu. Okorocha’s votes bumped up by fake Kaduna, Kano ballot papers

As the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Resident Electoral Commissioner for Imo state, Prof Oye Ibidapo- Obe declared the Imo governorship election inconclusive, the Director General of the Emeka Ihedioha campaign organization, Chief Chris Okewulonu says he is certain Hon Emeka Ihedioha will be declared  governor by INEC at the end of the day, because of election irregularities that bumped up Governor Rochas Okorocha's votes.

Speaking to journalists at his office recently, Chief Okewulonu said the  election was declared inconclusive because election never held in a good number of polling units (Pus), as Governor Okorocha unleashed the highest level of violence and thuggery using his Imo security network, the Imo security watch and also fake police men and soldiers which made the election to be marred by huge irregularities that has never been witnessed in the history of the state.

Chief Okewulonu also said the election was technically declared inconclusive because the 144,715 votes that were cancelled is far higher than the margin which the APC claims to be leading. He emphasized that the APC got the leadbecause  it used fake ballot papers from Northernstates such as Sokoto, Kano, Kaduna, Katsina and others, as it has been established, during the election which he said has confirmed the fact that Governor Okorocha only prepared to rig and not to win the election.

Chief Okewulonu said Governor Okorocha did not merit most votes given to him owing to  already established irregularities especially as regards  the issue of fake northern ballot papers insisting that Hon Ihedioha will be declared winner at the long run since it is imperative that deductions of fake votes awarded to Okorocha is most necessary and will leave him with little or nothing at the end of the day.

Even at that, Chief Okewulonu  insisted that the 46,000 votes from Ezinihitte Local government area which was reduced to 29,000 and that of Oru East that was as well reduced to 11,000 from the original 45,000 votes must be revisited and restored  before every other thing as he said INEC does not have the powers to sub allocate votes.

He however said he is still very confident the PDP will cancel out the 79,000 votes which the APC claims to be leading with since the 23 local government areas in which the runoff election will hold on the 25^th of this month were being won by the PDP before Governor Okorocha personally deployed his thugs to the areas to chase people away and snatch ballot boxes.

He added that the Imo PDP is legitimately pursuing its case  and has petitioned INEC  appropriately adding that the votes of Ezinihitte and Oru  East Local government areas when restored  will ultimately  give Hon Ihedioha victory.

Chief Okewulonu however urged Imo people especially those in whose areas the runoff election  will  hold to come out as usual and vote for PDP and Hon Emeka Ihedioha who he said will transform and develop Imo state.

It is however  rumoured that about eleven local government areas in which it has been established that large scale irregularities and  violence took place especially as regards the fake ballot papers will be cancelled out rightly by INEC which speculations hold may lead to Hon Ihedioha being declared winner based on results at hand.
