Governor Obiano was cited as saying in a statement issued on his behalf Friday evening by the Anambra State Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Mr C. Don Adinuba, that an early turnout is required since voting closes at 2.30pm.

Governor Obiano told the public that the election will be calm, free, and fair.

Governor Obiano reminded the people that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has not only rescinded its decision to prevent people from voting in the election but also urged voters to come out in droves.

“The IPOB leadership deserves commendation for listening to the cries of not only ndi Anambra but also other concerned persons from all over the Southeast and beyond, including traditional, religious and civil leaders.”
