President Muhammadu Buhari has been implored to cancel the appointment of former Resident Electoral Commissioner of Ebonyi State, Professor Godswill Obioma as the new Registrar of National Examination Council(NECO).
The member representing Ezza south/Ikwo federal constituency in the House of representatives, Ebonyi state, Hon. Chinedu Ogah who made this call, yesterday insisted that Obioma’s appointment was in error.
Famous Reporters recalls that President Muhammad Buhari had announced Obioma, Ebonyi state Resident Electoral Commissioner of Independent National Electoral Commission(INEC) as new NECO Registrar after sacking the former Registrar for alleged unacceptable acts.
In a statement issued in Abakaliki, Ebonyi state capital, the only APC National Assembly member from Ebonyi state, argued that the Ebonyi REC was not worthy of the appointment as according to him, Obioma worked against President Buhari and APC in last year’s presidential election.
He alleged that the REC reduced the President votes and left only 20,000 votes for him in a bid to give PDP victory at the poll but that Buhari still triumphed despite Obioma’s sabotage.
He further alleged that Obioma transfered the Electoral Officer of Ezza south when she refused to do his bidding and changed the result of that local government against the APC.
Ogah said Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC), Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission(ICPC) and Presidential Panel have been probing Obioma for various corrupt offences and wondered why the President should appoint.
“It is on record that EFCC, ICPC and Presidential Panel are probing Obioma for frauds. So, his appointment is the greatest mistake our President has made.
“Those who recommended him for the President are promoting corruption and denting the image of Mr. President who has vigorously fought corruption in this country.
“Obioma supposed to be properly probed instead of rewarding him with this appointment after committing all manner of fraud.
“How can you appoint a man who worked against our party and the Mr. President himself in 2019 general elections by reducing the President votes in my Ikwo local government? My people fought tooth and nail to ensure that our President was not defeated in Ikwo and he later won despite Obioma’s massive reduction of APC votes in Ikwo.
“Is it my own election that he did not rigged in favour of my opponent? Every other National Assembly results in that 2019 election in Ebonyi state was announced by Obioma led INEC immediately the election was concluded but my own took almost two days before he announced it after manipulating the result. He reduced over 10,000 votes from my votes and declared my opponent winner of the election, what an electoral fraud?
“I didn’t accept that fraudulent result, I challenged it in tribunal and won. My opponent proceeded to Appeal court in Enugu and that court also declared me the rightful winner of that February 23rd National Assembly election in Ezza south/Ikwo federal constituency.
“Today, Obioma is rewarded with this sensitive/juicy appointment to continue his fraudulent acts, what a mistake by our President when he urged to have been punished for electoral fraud.
“I am urging Mr. President to cancel this appointment and give it to any person that deserves it because the person currently appointed was a big mistake by the President and therefore he should be removed and replaced with any other person that does not have corrupt tendencies like Onions.
“Let me say without mincing words that whoever that recommended Obioma for this appointment is an enemy of Ndigbo and the country in general, otherwise why recommending a person of Obioma who should be properly investigated for fraud?”
