 The battle for the soul of human status is slowly gaining momentum and is expected to reach a crescendo on Saturday when all the candidates contesting the election will test their popularity. According to the independent national electoral commission INEC, seventeen candidates on the platforms of different political parties are seeking to govern him or however only four are viewed as the major contenders, O Puzo Dimmadi in incumbent governor and flag bearer of the all progressive congress APC is seeking a second term, making him the candidate to be. Authors are Samu Alanyao of the People's Democratic Party, PDP, Arthur Nachono of the Labour Party, LP and Lincoln Ogunowe of the Action Alliance, AA. Jonino's life is Declan Eme Lumba, commissioner for information Emo State. Commissioner, good to have you on plus politics. Good to have you on plus politics. What is the development now in Emo, in the backdrop of politicking on the one hand and the contention with NLC on the other hand? Is Emo working or has Emo come to a gridlock of assault? Can you hear me very well? I can hear you. I said in the backdrop of NLC's threat and the call for strike, is Emo still working? Emo still working. Emo still working. Find that everybody is going about his business, life is going. And then they are talking about it. It is not being felt anymore. The workers are being of their business. Nobody is of their business. The only thing which is very unfortunate is that government. Was the Emo State government in any way shape or form involved in the physical abuse of the NLC president? The alleged involvement of the Emo State. Nothing was almost itself involved. So it is your belief that it was more a political or partisan machination to embarrass the Emo State government. I can hear you. Can you hear me? I said is it your belief or can one deduce from what you said that it was almost a partisan machination to embarrass the Emo State government? Okay, I said can one deduce from your earlier remarks that it was a partisan machination to embarrass the Emo State government? Yeah, I was just actually landed before the commission. I was going to say for some for more. You know, from the year of Emo State, the mantle of the NLC president was going to fight instead. Of course they have the mission in the local NLC in Emo State. So it was that the mission that we said that we are also aware that even he himself, the president of NLC, came up with a partisan objective. In fact, he asked for some challenges in the mission. And one is the head of the international relations in NLC. He came up with a lot of challenges in the NLC once he scored the election in Emo State. We see it well with no position. Who won the elections coming in the year today on the channel. So there is no doubt that the thing has a partisan coloration. The situation in Emo, proud to even electioneering campaigns, has been so dire and a bit frenzied. Now that the electioneering campaigns are going on, do you think that voters will come out on Saturday? Do you think that in the backdrop of the security scenario in Emo, the voters, voters, the electors, if they will come out on Saturday? In the backdrop of the security situation, that precede the electioneering campaigns, I said in the backdrop of the security situation, scenario that precede the electioneering campaigns, I think in the backdrop of the security situation, I can tell you clearly that there is nothing like the backdrop of the security situation. The security situation in this case has escalated the problems. When the people that were here on the 12th and voters on the 12th time and time again, that they should come out, excise their franchise, that they should come out on Saturday as they go. Just telling Emo lights now, why would you think they should vote for the principal again? Why should they elect him? Why did you elect my governor? Yes, that's the question. He had done tremendously well. When he came in in 2020 tremendously well, he was with digital skills. And this people are now in a position to very, very drastically reduce. We are able to revamp the health sector, which when completed, he came and cleared that backlog and promoted, they are very happy. He had paid pensioners, paid the pensioners about how many youths have adopted himself, continue with his good work. Mr. Commissioner, if he has paid workers that consistently, how come he is having this in Broglie or Ferrari with the NLC, for which one of the reasons they have enumerated is the fact that he has not paid some workers, and has deliberately cleared some workers as ghost workers. That is not true. He has been in union. He has been in the union since 2017. He has been in the union since 2017. So he has an agenda. The question is how can he go in salary? I want to repeat myself, but I can consider that he will do it. He will only say that there is no doubt about that. So all that he said in public care is abusing his position కింన న spiceg zodahap, మూంపచన, తతింటి మూదిలుంచాధనజెం destroy the work under it ఇదిని. ఆయారికి పజ౪చింల౸ం ఉహిన్నాచాynamనూ రహిలుర్ధె  expenditures  nuit  darker  Ι y оля n  ऽ  Ba 只有  part- nothing호 kack charger nkapi nkapi was the only state that has that unfortunate picture. was it true that when that election was taking place, that the place was attacked by hoodlums and the place was vandalized, was it true? was it true that when that election was taking place, that the place was attacked by hoodlums and the place was vandalized, was it true?
