After Post Presidential Election Crisis: Ihiala People Say No To Election Violence

Ihiala, a peaceful Local Government Area in the south senatorial zone
of Anambra State has not been the same after the presidential and
National Assembly electionviolence on March 28.

Asides thousands of Ihiala people demonstrating anger over the
violence that occurred in the March 28 elections, they have also
raised their voices against a repeat.

In a solidarity visit to the home of one of the victims of the March
28 election violence, Mr Ernest Azudialor Obiejesi, Ihiala people have
also declared a death wish for whoever attempts to rig the April 11
governorship election.

Mr Obiejesi was a victim whom they thought had been killed during the
fracas that broke out on the election day but survived.

Narrating the violent incident which left two policemen and several
community members seriously injured, Obiejesi urged the people to
stand up and defend the truth at all times.

The election at Ihiala turned violent when some political thugs
invaded the collation center at the Local Government Area and shot
sporadically which led to two policemen and several community members
being fatally wounded.
