The November 16 Anambra governorship election fiasco has taken a new twist with the Tony Nwoye Campaign Organisation (TNCO) taking issues with  the ruling party over its comments on the election.

In a statement yesterday, the TNCO described statements by the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Chief Olisa Metuh as arrant nonsense and an act of betrayal.

The statement was jointly signed by Ikeagwuonwu Chinedu, Mazi Okwu Okwu, Hon Ikechukwu Onyia and Mazi Orjika Chidi.

Metuh had, on Monday commended the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the security agencies for what he described as peaceful conduct of the poll. Metuh had also described the election as free and fair.

But Nwoye’s camp has raised questions over Metuh’s sense of judgment and his loyalty to the cause of the party’s governorship candidate.

The camp accused Metuh of working for the interest of Governor Peter Obi and the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) against the interest of the PDP candidate.

He added that it is a shame that while other political parties like the APC, the Labour Party, the CNPP and others were calling for a total cancellation of the election, Metuh was busy singing a different song and questions who he is really working for as well as the party do you actually belongs to.
