A video has surfaced showing the extent of election rigging in the 2023 elections in Rivers State as Ihunwo Chijioke, a PDP chieftain and close ally of the Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara brags.
Some Nigerians have called for the arrest of Chijioke, the Chairman of the National Youth Council of Nigeria over the crime against the Labour Party (LP).
He admitted to the crime while addressing Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders at Rumunduru ward, in Obio-Akpor local government area, on the feud between Fubara and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike.
He said LP won the elections in the state during the 2023 polls, but they wrote the results released by the Independent National Election Commission (INEC) in favour of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ihunwo added that they are not scared of anybody, and it is payback time now.
However, the video has generated reactions from netizens, with many calling for Ihunwo’s arrest.
@ugezu: “A man riding on the back of political razzmatazz, has just confessed to a crime, a deadly crime that bothers on denying the people, the leader they chose. Something aught to happen in a normal state. But Niger Area is surely an abnormal place.”
@billionaire: “Not new everyone knows obi wins hands down but no worries there is a word called karma”
