Politicians planning to rig Abia guber should first write their wills – Alex Otti
Alex Otti, governor of Abia, has asked politicians scheming to rig the 2027 governorship election in the state to abandon their plans.
Speaking on Thursday during a monthly meeting with journalists at the government house in Umuahia, Otti said the will of God and the people will determine the outcome of the polls.
The governor also asked those planning to manipulate the process to prepare for the consequences.
“I have heard that some people around him say, ‘Oh, they must take over this state, they must write results’,” he said.
“But the only advice I have for them is that if they truly want to write results, they should write something else before that time.
“You know what it is? Their will.”
Otti was reacting to comments attributed to Benjamin Kalu, deputy speaker of the house of representatives, who said the All Progressives Congress (APC) will take over Abia in 2027. (The Cable)
