From www.odogwublog.com reader : Ubah, Obiejesi Fight Dirty At Collation Center Over Election Result Sheet Falsification
At least 5 persons including 2 policemen and the
Group Managing Director of NESTOIL PLC, Dr. (Sir) Ernest Azudialu Obiejesi were
seriously wounded on Sunday in a fight between him and the
Director of
Transformation Ambassador of Nigeria (TAN), Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah, reports www.odogwublog.com.The Free-For-All Fight began around 3.30pm at the headquarters of Ihiala Local Government Area of Anambra which is the collation center for Ihiala Federal House of Representative, and lasted for more than 45minute over an alleged result mutilation.
Trouble
started when Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah allegedly found Sir Obiejesi while falsifying the
original result sheet been submitted to the collation center in favour of his
party, APGA. Ifeanyi Ubah was supporting PDP.
“When Ubah found Sir Obiejesi popularly known as
Obijackson falsifying the original sheets to favour APGA and his candidate, Ubah
encountered him, snatched the paper away from him and they began to fight to
the charging of their respective supporters,” our source said.
Sir Obiejesi clothing was torn even as two vehicles
were badly damaged at the process but the key players refused to grant the
press interview on what truly transpired.
Confirming the report on phone, the Anambra State
Police Public Relations Officer (PPPRO) Uche Eze said “there was crisis at Ihiala local government area which is the collation centre but I do not know
the names of those involved in the fight. But two Police men were injured and
already taken to hospital for treatment.”
Our reporter reliably gathered that it was effort of policemen sent from the state police command that brought the matter to a halt.
Meanwhile, collation of results for the Senatorial
and Federal House of Representative elections in Anambra Central, Anambra South
and Anambra North Senatorial zones are still on at the various INEC collation
centers.
In Awka collation center comprising Awka North, Awka South, Anaocha, Dunukofia, Njikoka, Idemili North and Idemili South Local Government Areas, our reporter discovered that all the council Areas have submitted their respective result sheets, excerpt Idemili North and South, the stronghold of the incumbent Senator representing the zone Sen. Chris Ngige, who has already pulled out of the election with his party.

However, when our reporter arrived Awka collation center, the Returning Officer encountered problem with political party supporters when transferring the result sheets meticulously to ascertain their veracity with master sheet.
“When I was crosschecking them to ensure clarity, some overzealous party agents accused me of falsifying the result, and in the confusion that ensured, the collation room became rowdy. To avoid been lynched or stampeded, I called on security officers for protection”, said the INEC officer.
As at the time of filing this report, the intervention of security officers including soldiers, police and SARS have brought the situation to normalcy.
Also, tension is high all over the state as unconfirmed report indicates that PDP was leading in all the three senatorial zones.
The contestants for Anambra Central are Dr. Chris Ngige of APC, Uche Ekwunife of PDP and Chief Victor Umeh of APGA; while the North has Princess Stella Odua of PDP and Dubem Obaze; and the South has Senator Andy Ubah of PDP, Ernest Ndukwe of APGA and Mrs. Ethel Obiakor of APC.
