At All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) has denied reports that the governorship candidate in Abia State, Gregory Ibe, is ill.
Gregory Ibe Campaign Council spokesperson, John Nwokocha, said this in a statement sent to PREMIUM TIMES on Saturday.
Mr. Nwokocha said the opposition’s claims about the health of Mr. Ibe, the professor, are evil, evil and lies from the pit of hell.
“Greg Ibe is physically healthy, mentally healthy and remains the most respected candidate by Abians.
“Actually, our candidate, Prof. Greg Ibe is healthy and energetic. He is truly gregarious, lives up to his name, is diligent and continues to attend to the programs and needs of teeming supporters”, he said.
A spokesperson for the campaign added that “Our candidate will emerge as the biggest surprise for the opposition on March 11.”
He said that Mr. Ibe acknowledged the prayers and good pleas of the good people of Abia and urged them to come out en masse and vote for him and other candidates in APGA on election day.
Meanwhile, the Director General of Gregory Ibe Campaign Council, Longman Nwachukwu, said the governorship aspirant would launch a campaign rally on Tuesday in Ohafia in Abia North Senatorial District.
He said the rally would cover all the 17 local government areas in the state.
The released schedule shows that all APGA candidates in the state are vying for state and national positions in the February 25 and March 11 elections and supporters must participate fully in the rallies.
Mr. Nwachukwu said the campaign activities will start on February 16 with a strategic meeting of the accredited campaign board members with party women directors, council of elders, stakeholders, youth groups and pro-groups on February 16 and 17.
He said that on February 18, there will be an open interdenominational dedication and thanksgiving ceremony at the campaign secretariat in Umuahia while on February 19, church visits/worships will be held in selected churches to walk together in the three senatorial zones.
Mr. Nwachukwu also said that a breakfast meeting with the student body and a business meeting with representatives of professional bodies would be held the next day February 20.
He listed other activities in his campaign calendar with the grand finale of a rally held in Aba on March 9.
