The candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the ongoing Aba North/Aba South Federal Constituency Bye-election, Hon. Mascot Kalu, has said that the exercise was marred by violence in some polling units.
Kalu said he would call for the repeat of the election in the alleged violent areas.
He spoke at the Eziama High School Ward 01, Unit 014, during an interaction with newsmen.
“We have reports of malpractice at Abia Polytechnic, vote buying at Item Hall but here at Eziama, it has been peaceful.
“We had a vigorous campaign and are hopeful we will emerge victorious but it is the people that will decide at the end of the day,” Kalu said.
He denied the allegation that APC engaged the military to disrupt voting in some wards.
According to him, the military operatives only moved into areas they were invited due to electoral violence.
