The outlawed pro-Biafra separatist group, Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has warned that any ad-hoc staff of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) that uses his or her position to subvert the wish of the people of Imo State in the Saturday gubernatorial election in the state will receive it hot even after the election.
The group said this in a statement on Wednesday by the head Media and Publicity, IPOB, Comrade Emma Powerful.
The statement reads:
“We the global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by the prophet and great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu wish to reiterate once again that any INEC ad-hoc staff that uses his or her desk to subvert the will of the people of Imo State in the name of working for APC and Hope Uzodinma will receive it hot even after the elections on the 11th November, 2023. If you knew you cannot resist bribes and intimidation from Hope Uzodinma and APC, it’s better to back off to avoid had I known.
“Any INEC ad-hoc staff, SPO, PO and NYSC member who will be used by APC agents to falsify results or try to transmit fake results from the polling units will be doing so at his or her own risk. Same goes to the political thugs working for and as agents for Hope Uzodinma to rig this election, should be ready for what will befall them even after the election.
“IPOB reiterates our stand towards this election because nobody wants to witness the atrocities that have happened in Imo State in the last four years to continue. Imo State people’s will must not be subverted this time and those who have been contracted to subvert the will of the people must be ready to face the consequences.
“All those employed and drafted to various polling units to help rig this election will be doing so to their own and family risks; their families must call them to order or they all will sorely regret to have participated in this election. Anyone that enthroned evil on the people deserves no mercy. IPOB eyes are at every corner in the state monitoring the activities of political jobbers and criminals.
“Hotel owners, we must warn again, should not collude with Hope Uzodinma in his desperate moves to force himself on Imo people that rejected him in the first election, before the fulanized Supreme Court forced him on Ndimo.
“APC party has committed so many atrocities in the state and Imolites won’t rejoice seeing them take over the state anymore. Every Imo State Indigene and those living in the state will suffer should those barbarians in government continue.
“Hope Uzodinma should go with his evil achievements so far. Imo people don’t want him again and APC by extension.”
