The Youths Against Human Rights Violation And Corrupt Practices (
YAHVCP ) wish to state it here that It is a fact that corruption is a big
social problem militating against the development of the economy and the
welfare of the citizens. According to a World Bank estimate, over $400billion
have been looted by capitalist politicians and their contractor allies from the
nation’s wealth in the past 4 decades. There is no doubt that if these looted
resources are made available and judiciously used, the economy and the living
standard of the people will not be as deplorable as they are at the moment.
It is therefore imperative for every right thinking and change
seeking Nigerian to vote for a total and merciless war against corruption in
all ramifications. In this regard, the deceptive announcement of Emeka Ihedioha
as the winner of a PDP governorship primaries in Imo State in an election
that the total number of votes cast is greater than the total number of
accredited voters constitutes a pointed signal that the Imo PDP is not
prepared to give Imolites the needed change in governance. We have not been
fighting for a change in government in Imo State for us to hand over governance
to cheats and fraudulent persons.
28 Imo sons and daughters aspired to govern Imo by picking PDP
Nomination form at the cost of 11 million naira each.In a primary that
will select the party flag bearer.
Total number of Votes cast = 1,017
Total No of Void Votes = 11
Total no of Valid Votes = 1,006
Votes obtained or scored by all Aspirants excluding Rt Hon
Ihedioha = 681
Now 1,006 Valid Votes minus 681 Votes scored by others Aspirants
will give you a balance of 325 Votes not greater than 346 Votes
Scored by Araraume. Why was Emeka Ihedioha declared winner of the primaries?
Where are the extra 21 votes coming from?
By openly rigging the Imo PDP governorship primaries, Emeka
Ihedioha has shown us that he is a cheat and a corrupt man , a man not to be
trusted with leadership of Imo State . Imo will not move from frying pan to
fire. A Party that wants to rescue Imo from the hands of the
current marauders in Government house Owerri will show
example by allowing delegates decide the flag bearer
through a free and fair voting process not to criminally rig the
election.
Never again will Imo fold its arm and watch while a few
politicians hire professional election riggers to carry out their criminal
activities against the wishes and aspirations of majority of the people. YAHVCP
will not want to see one corrupt crew in Imo State simply being
replaced by a new gang of criminals.
