The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has asserted that the upcoming November 11 governorship election in Imo State is not necessarily bound to proceed as scheduled.

Uchenna Ekwe, the NLC Head of International Relations, made this declaration during an interview on Channels TV on Wednesday. Ekwe emphasised that the Imo populace has been subjected to relentless violence, rendering the election ineffective.

He further stated that Imo workers have lost faith in the election’s ability to bring about any meaningful change.

Ekwe questioned, “Talking about the election, in Imo in particular, did the votes count? How did he (Hope Uzodinma) become governor? In Imo, is the place not terrorized?”

“Go to Imo I challenge you, you won’t see a poster of any other party, you can’t even see a tiny poster of any other party. Get feedback from your correspondents in Imo, ask them in the whole street on Owerri whether there is a poster of any other party,” he challenged.

Ekwe expressed scepticism regarding the prospect of a credible election, citing the disruption of an INEC meeting. He maintained that workers and the general populace have lost confidence in the election’s ability to yield positive outcomes.

“How can you say election is coming up, INEC meeting was disrupted, how can you hope that there will be any election, we don’t have faith, even the workers don’t have faith that the election will determine anything, that is the truth,” Ekwe asserted.

“We don’t believe election in Imo will produce anything because the Imo people have been crushed, violence have taken over the place. We are not telling them not to come out to vote but the people will be scared to come out,” he added.

Ekwe said the world would not crumble if the election did not take place as planned.

“Must there be election in Imo, will the world end? Will the world end if there is no election in Imo State? No, the world would not end, we are not disrupting election,” he concluded.

Ignore the silly Obidents noise here.



The only person that will defeat Hope is Hope himself
.
His only sin is because he's in APC

If Hope was to be in PDP or LP , they would have declared him the winner even before election

Is it true there is no light in the entire state since Tuesday last week?

U re very silly, stop defending evil, how did somebody who came fourth in an election be forced to rule against people's choice. Hope uzodimma is a thug and a killer, my good people of Imo don't want him. Salaries and pension s are barely not been paid in the sate and u're here trying to justify it simply because u're benefiting from the useless APC leg govt.

how you guys refuse to call out the real thugs who are politicians amazes me....always blaming the people who are not the cause of Nigeria's problem.. rubbish!!!

I have been here since a week before the Presidential Election, only left Imo today for Bayelsa, and then to Lag after the election.

1. There has been no light since Tuesday last week as a result of the Ajaero issue; it's not ending anytime soon.

2. There is no standing poster, billboard or whatever of any Party whatsoever, save for Hope's standing anywhere in Owerri.

3. Uzodimma will win with a landslide. Results you know, we knew how it went with other elections in February.

4. The word on the streets is that: s'ebi it's just 4 years let him do and go, nobody wants to get into the cross-fire. You will see the boycott on Saturday!

5. His opponents even have no clouts, the election ended the day Ihedioha bowed out of the contest.

6. That he will win is no news, he will win and win well.

Don't be surprised if you find out the Crowd behind him are mostly ipob members

Some People saw it coming

I have said this before, LP is just using NLC to cause trouble, including our Economy.

Ajaero should stop pretending and enter politics fulltime. His intention is to become an Oshiomhole in future but it can't happen because even his people of Owerri see him as a shady character. He has kept Imo state in darkness for a week just to make Uzodinma lose and help his labour party win. The t won't work for him.

Jorussia:
what about bayelsa?

Diri has tried but a Bayelsa Gov should do better considering their allocations. He is better than Dickson though!

He is 65% done, not because he has done too well but the APC chose a Candidate that is not liked.

That's what my bayelsa source told me about an hour ago.David Lyon would have won convincingly.

Lyon had the goodwill. Diri is always a lucky man!

Uzosimma showed him shege. Next time, he will stay on his lane rather than meddling.
