Comrade Lucky Akabuike, a candidate for the position of President-General of the Ohuhu Welfare Union, has disowned the purported election scheduled for November 7, 2026, insisting that the exercise was suspended by an order of a competent court.
In a public statement issued on Saturday, Akabuike maintained that no election was held on the said date, stressing that the electoral process had been legally restrained by the court.
He explained that, as a law-abiding citizen who believes in the rule of law, judicial authority and due process, he could neither participate in nor recognise any electoral exercise conducted in defiance of a valid court order.
Akabuike called on his supporters, well-wishers and the entire people of Ohuhu to remain calm, peaceful and law-abiding while awaiting the appropriate legal processes.
He also cautioned against actions capable of disrupting public peace, urging all parties involved to exercise restraint and respect the authority of the judiciary.
The candidate further described as false and misleading any reports suggesting that he participated in the election purportedly conducted on November 7.
He urged members of the Ohuhu community to disregard such publications, reiterating that he did not participate in the purported exercise.
Akabuike reaffirmed his commitment to the unity, peace and progress of Ohuhu, calling on all stakeholders to prioritise the collective interest of the community and uphold the rule of law.
