An elderly woman who refused to collect money in exchange for her vote during the Anambra State governorship election has been rewarded by the incumbent governor, Willie Obiano
During the election, the woman was seen rejecting the money from the All Progressives Congress (APC) political representatives in the recently concluded election.
The video showed the woman being blocked by the party agents as she tried to manoeuvre her way through to the polling booth.
The woman was also heard saying that, “we don’t want APC, they’ve been bad to us.” The young man with wads of Naira notes was told to leave the polling unit.
The Anambra State Governor, Willie Obiano who was obviously impressed by the elderly woman’s integrity and resilience rewarded her.
He announced the reward during a church service on Thursday. He awarded her the sum of N1 million and urged the people of the state to emulate her.
