2023: Election Will Hold In South-East – Abaribe

Enyinnaya Abaribe

Enyinnaya Abaribe, the lawmaker representing Abia South senatorial district, said on Wednesday that the South-security East’s situation will not affect the region’s general elections in 2023.

Abaribe charged the governors of the South-East to work together, rather than individually, to end the unrest in the region.

On Channels TV, he stated that the 2023 general election will be free and fair with BVAS, and that the results will reveal who the people trust or do not trust.

He said;

For some time we have not heard that all the governors have met. They are the chief security officers of their states.

When they come together and take a stand everyone will follow, but each of them seems to want to do their own thing separately and it is not working because this is a regional issue.

For example, if you pursue them in Imo they extend themselves to Anambra, if you push them in Anambra they run to Ebonyi, you push them in Ebonyi they run to Enugu.

So every one of us must come together and work and work to bring peace to Igboland. But this will not affect the election, I tell you. You will see that the elections in the South-East will be free, will be fair and with BVAS the results will show who the people trust or not.

Abaribe claimed that external forces are to blame for insecurity in the South East, with the goal of preventing people from exercising their right to vote freely and fairly.

He stated that he paid a visit to the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, who is being held by the Department of State Services (DSS), and Kanu revealed that there is no sit-in in the region.

He said;

All that is going on is that some merchants of violence and destruction have taken over and committed crimes and when they do that, they now say it is this group or that group.
