NDC House Of Assembly Aspirant,  Evangelist Obue Urges Party Leadership To Allow His Victory Stand

By Chukwudi Ebele—

The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) Aspirant for Awka South Constituency II, House of Assembly, Evangelist Chinedu Raymond Obue (Nwachinemelu), has raised an alarm about alleged conspiracies targeted at sabotaging his victory in the party primaries last weekend by yet-to-be-identified tycoons supporting his opponent, who lost in the election.

He appealed to the Presidential candidate of NDC, Mr Peter Obi, National Chairman of NDC, Sen. Cleopas Moses Zuwoghe, and the founder of NDC, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, among other party leaders at all levels, to intervene and restore his mandate being threatened.

He appealed to lovers of democracy in the party to ensure that nothing happens to the mandate given to him by his people in a primary election that was free, fair, and transparent, with INEC officials and DSS present to observe.

He informed that the result was duly signed by the Election Committee Chairman for Awka South LGA, Engr. Prof. Paul Okolie, and video evidence confirms its credibility. He said he pulled 625 votes to beat his opponent, Sam Chuks Ọkpanduka, who got 73 votes.

He has already written a petition on the outcome of the Awka South Constituency primaries to the appeal panel of NDC at Abuja, expecting intervention in the face of threatening injustice.

In a Facebook post by the candidate tagged “SHOULD NOT CHANGE MY RESULT!!!, Evangelist Obue published the authentic result made available to them by the officials who conducted the primary election.

The write-up read thus:

“Ndì Obizì, Awka South Constituency II, as we await the official announcement of the NIGERIA DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS (NDC) Primary election held on May 29, 2026, it is important to relate to you, my people, that this is the authentic result of the primary election held at Umuzocha Hall, Awka:

“- Chinedu Raymond Obue – 625 votes

“The election was free, fair, and transparent, with INEC officials and DSS present to observe. The result was duly signed by the Election Committee Chairman for Awka South LGA, Engr. Prof. Paul Okolie, and video evidence confirms its credibility.

“Ndị Obizi will not allow their mandate to be stolen.

“The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) must uphold the wishes of the people and resist any attempt to compromise this victory.

Evangelist Obue concluded: “Justice must prevail. The mandate must stand”.
