Fallout Of Imo Guber Election: How PDP Leaders Converted Money To Indomie For Party Agents

IHEDIOHA..Guber Bid Sabotaged?

The last may not have been heard why the Peoples Democratic Party PDP lost the 2015 governorship election in Imo State.

One of the reasons is that some party leaders did not utilize the huge sum of money made available to them by the party for the  governorship election.

This blog gathered that in Owerri municipal, one of the key PDP strongholds in Imo State, some aggrieved party stakeholders are now raising dust, alleging that some party leaders in the area diverted monies meant for those who will hold forte for the party at the polling booths.

Some stakeholders in Owerri municipal, in a resolution endorsed by one Ebere Chukwuemeka (ABJ) and co signed by over 1000 PDP stakeholders, alleged that some party leaders in the area in collaboration with the municipal PDP chairman used the money to purchase Indomies and other items for the party's personnel at the polling booths during the elections.

He alleged “ The thirty thousand naria (N30,000) per a booth largeese which was given to every local Government in the State, whereas all the local distributed theirs but Owerri Municipal party chairman and his godfathers used our own money to buy Indomie, matches, salt and morning fresh for party agents manning the polling booths.

  

He expressed regret that while the people of Owerri zone were determined to ensure that one of their sons, the PDP candidate,  Rt Hon Emeka Ihedioha won the governorship election, some party leaders and godfathers sabotaged the efforts.

He advocated for new faces in the PDP as the party’s congress draws near, adding that only such persons will energize PDP to bounce back to power in Imo State.
