AWKA—A MEMO allegedly sent to the administration department of the Anambra State Post Primary Schools Service Commission, PPSSC, to supply information about teachers and civil servants in the state ahead of Saturday’s presidential election, is causing disquiet in the Atiku/Obi Campaign Council.
The Director-General of Atiku/Obi Campaign
Organization in Anambra State, Dr. Harry Oranezi, who expressed the
worry, said the directive was indicative of a rigging plan, warning
Governor Willie Obiano against acts capable of undermining the election
and the electoral law.
However, Governor Obiano, who spoke
through the Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Don
Adinuba said there was no iota of truth in the allegation.
Oranezi, who addressed reporters in Awka said: “Among
many acts of the governor included threats of dismissal of Anambra
civil servants that do not vote for President Muhammadu Buhari, the
candidate of APC.
“The governor directed that text messages
be sent to civil servants in the state. The text message read: ‘Please
submit a return on these details of staff in your school to Admin.
Department of PPSSC Awka zonal office as directed by the Executive
Governor of Anambra State, namely, 1, Name; 2, Voting Ward and 3.Polling
Unit. “Return to be submitted before close of work on 20/02/19. Please
acknowledge receipt of this information.”
