Imo PDP Guber Candidate, Anyanwu, Reacts To Reports Of Stepping Down For Hope Uzodinma

The Governorship Campaign Council of the Imo State PDP governorship candidate, Senator Samuel Nnaemeka Anyanwu, has reacted to a video circulating that he has withdrawn from the race.

It described such reports as fake, saying nothing of such happened.

The Director, New Media, SamJones Governorship Campaign, Dumebi Ifeanyichukwu, in a statement on Friday urged the public to ignore such reports.

“The SamJones Governorship Campaign Council is compelled to address a malicious video circulating, falsely claiming that our esteemed Candidate, Senator Samuel Nnaemeka Anyanwu, has withdrawn from the gubernatorial race.

“We emphatically state that this information is categorically FALSE. After a thorough examination of the video, it became evident that it was heavily edited with manipulated audio to mislead the public.

“We call on the General Public to disregard the Video,” the statement read in part.

Meanwhile, in a video published by TVC, the station said Senator Anyawu has directed all his supporters to vote for the State incumbent governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma in the coming Saturday’s governorship election.
