Abia state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, have vowed to
stop the inauguration of Uche Ogah as the new governor of the state,
saying they will rather die than see it happen. Chairman of PDP in Abia
state, Johnson Onuigbo, made the party’s position known after an
emergency meeting in Umuahia yesterday night. Onuigbo said the action of
INEC to issue Ogah a certificate of return could throw the state into
anarchy
“We are ready for them, we are ready to die. If they do it, then they
are inviting anarchy and confusion in the state. Abia is not safe. I
didn’t want to believe the rumor that the state will soon be invaded by
the army because this is not a war zone. We want to inform the world
that there is tension in Abia because democracy is about to be raped. As
a party, we will resist any move by anybody to undermine the peace in
the state,” he said
