A suspect, one Anthony Onuoha has confessed to having worked with over 30 election riggers during last year’s Anambra election in favour of Prof. Charles Soludo.
Onuoha was arrested by the Ebonyi State police command over alleged car theft, on Thursday,
According to the suspect, they were hired by one Uche General, to rig the governorship election for the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA.
The suspect alleged that they were given a car and fifty thousand naira after the election.
According to him: “Last year November, a car was given to me after governor Soludo’s election, because I was involved as one of the 30 persons that were kept in one place to work for APGA. We were promised to be given a car and fifty thousand naira after the election.
“What attracted me to work for APGA was the car and not the fifty thousand naira. I went to Anambra State that November; I was picked by one Mr. Uche General, I don’t know his surname. Uche General was the one in charge of the section.”
“The role I played there was that we were kept at Awka North to thumbprint ballot papers on that day of the election. We thumb-printed for APGA governorship candidate, Charles Soludo, and we agreed that at the end of the day, we will be given a car and fifty thousand naira, which they did.
“We are nine persons that were given a car out of over thirty persons that were hired for the job. This car was given to me by them and the fifty thousand naira to fuel it,” he alleged.
