Hon.Ifeco,made this above appeal to the people of Ikeduru especially those are mapped out for rerun by INEC in his Owerri business center in a swift interview with some cross section of Imo journalists who stormed him on the early hours on Tuesday,March 19th 2019.

” I am the candidate of APC for the 2019 Ikeduru State Assembly election. I am a Christian,a gentle man to the core. I am into philanthropism,a nation builder and a job creator who have given meaningful job opportunities to so many youths of Ikeduru LGA and beyond. I am into active politics today to further impact positively into the lives of many. I have done done a lot in assisting the youths of my constituency. Over 700 youths are gainfully employed under my watch and I am very poised to offer effective representation to my Ikeduru people,if my mandate is reclaimed”,Ifeco submitted.

“On my alleged sponsorship of bomb in Ikeduru land,I am not involved,I am not even aware of it,as such I have seen bomb since I was born in my life. I am not power drunk and I am going to be involved in any political activities of do or die. I have called all the active politicians mostly the candidates,over 71 of them in Ikeduru to always tow the path of peace. There are a lot of persons bearing the name ” Ifeco” in Imo State. Anybody caught with bomb and other dangerous weapons should be arrested”,Hon.Opara stated.

“I have told all my opponents who are contesting for the election to maintain peace. The 39,000 votes expected from the already cancelled areas (booths in Ikeduru) are for me,because it is coming from my own catchment areas. I will win with wide margin during the re-run,come Saturday,March 23rd 2019”,he expressed optimism.

Hon.Opara,therefore frowned at what he described as unprofessional practice of journalism on the ” My Radio Fm” for their purported announcement of the PDP candidate as the winner of the election that was declared inconclusive by INEC,even he called on the Nigerian Radio License Agent to withdraw or checkmate the incessant unethical radio broadcast at My Radio.

“My people actually want me to go and represent them as their law maker. I am using this opportunity to advise those aspiring to be elected as Ikeduru State House of  Assembly member in 2019 especially the candidate of PDP to strategize on how to win the election rather than tarnishing other people’s hard earn image with his radio station. He should remember that his own image might be tarnished by some other people so long as life is concerned. Using his ” My Radio Fm” to deceive every the people is unlawful. You can not continue to run other people down because you are running a Radio Station.

His Radio station should not take laws into their hands. The PDP candidate in Ikeduru is very desperate to die because of election”,he alleged.

Hon.Opara,however expressed hopeful that he would be victoriously elected on Saturday,March 23rd rerun polls,even as he appealed to Ikeduru people to vote for APC,vote for Ifeco,vote for effective representation and vote for rapid development of Ikeduru land.
