Imo Election: We haven’t endorsed any governorship candidate — Elders
Stakeholders, on the platform of Concerned Elders of Imo State, have dissociated themselves from the purported endorsement of a particular candidate for the governorship election scheduled for November.
The disclaimer was contained in a statement by Chief Nicholas Adiele Oparaku and Elder Isaac Okoronkwo on behalf of other members in Abuja, on Monday.
They said that as elders, their duty at this moment was to ensure that the people enjoy the free hand to elect a governor of their choice without any form of coercion.
They said reports suggesting that elders of Imo State have endorsed a particular candidate for the November 11 governorship election was undemocratic, unconstitutional and does not represent the position of Imo elders.
