Kenneth Okonkwo, a member of the African Democratic Congress, has strongly condemned the recent attack on NDC supporters in Enugu State. Okonkwo took to his official X account to call for accountability from the authorities in order to prevent the spread of anarchy. The incident occurred at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu, where unknown thugs attacked NDC supporters who had gathered to welcome their governorship candidate.
Okonkwo emphasized that the violence against the NDC in Enugu State, allegedly sponsored by the APC, highlights the party's desperation to secure power come 2027. He urged Nigerians, particularly those from Enugu State, to take a stand against electoral violence and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to vote, with their votes being counted fairly.
The attack, which resulted in the death of one NDC supporter, was an unfortunate event that Okonkwo described as deplorable. He stressed that the security agencies must conduct a thorough investigation into the incident, identify and punish the perpetrators accordingly. Okonkwo warned that if the security forces fail to hold attackers accountable for their actions, anarchy will prevail in the region.
