The young lady’s offence was standing solidly for the APC despite every enticements from different political parties.
Though he failed to mention her name, Ukachukwu said the election really showed the presence of APC in Anambra State despite all insinuations from the opposition that the party does not exist in the State.

On the possibility of challenging the outcome of the election, Ukachukwu said, he was still collating information from Wards to local government areas on what happened.
” For now, we are still collating data and information on the election. Again, there is nothing I can do without briefing my Party APC, they are the people to decide on our next move.
” However, despite everything that happened, I have to thank my supporters, members of APC family and friends for sticking out their neck during the period of campaigns and election.
“My major concern is the burning of the house of one of the APC supporters in Anambra East for being resolute despite every intimidation and harassment from the opposition.
” The young woman’s house was burnt and in the course of the campaigns, the vehicles and buildings of some of our supporters were destroyed and burnt but they JK kept pushing, I’m grateful”
” The information are being collated and after consulting my Party, then, decision has to be taken,” Ukachukwu said on Sunday.
