Reactions over Obiano's Voters card transfer


There has been reactions over the transfer of  Obiano's voters card from Lagos to Anambra. First it was said that  Mr Willie Obiano registered twice, but the  APGA state chairman Chief Mike Kwentoh has dismissed the insinuation, it was also gathered that it has become a major campaign issue for the Ifeanyi Ubah campaign which has raised assertions of impropriety against Obiano saying the APGA candidate is unfit to rule the state.


Kwentoh in dismissing the assertion that has been on cyberspace since last weekend said that what Obiano did was to transfer his registration from Lagos to Anambra
”The allegation of double registration is not true. Obiano only transferred his registration from Lagos to Anambra state. People should disregard such stories,” he said.
Reacting to the development, Prince Chukwuemeka, head of the Ifeanyi Ubah Media team said the issue went a long way to show why Obiano should not be governor.
“For him to have registered in Lagos shows that he does not come home to  see his people in Anambra.
It means that he does not attend town union,  kindred and family meetings. Now that he has been made candidate he chose to come home and register. Anambra people should be wise,” he said.
Reacting to the issue of double registration, the state Resident Electoral Commission (REC) Prof. Chukwuemeka Onukaogu warned that such action would attract severe sanction as provided in the constitution. He explained that in event of a voter that has relocated to another town, he or she can only apply for transfer of registration at his new location and that if it is discovered the law will take its course. Now, the ball is in Obiano’s court
