Obiano Meets Buhari, Solicits Free, Fair Election in Anambra State

Anambra State Governor Willie Obiano has urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to ensure a hitch-free and fair election in the state.

He spoke with State House correspondents yesterday at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, after he held a closed-door meeting with President President Muhammadu Buhari.

He said: “Anambra remains the safest state in Nigeria today; we don’t have cases of kidnapping, armed robbery or similar crimes. We have been firmly in control of that state and will continue to do so throughout my tenure as governor.

“I am very confident that I will win the forthcoming election with a landslide. All we want is for the umpire to be unbiased. A free and fair election is what we want and we will get the result.”
