Ugochere who raised the alarm on the social media is calling on the security agencies to please come to his assistance.

Recall that Ugochere has been the target of government officials in Imo State after he led his CUPP in a press conference which showed that over 40,000 fake names were fraudulent entered into INEC register in Hope Uzodinma ward, which originally had about 4,000 registered voters.

The other anomaly, the CUPP spokesman unveiled about the Imo State government is the fact that the 40,000 fake names smuggled into the INEC register, which has now been removed had more Hausa, Yoruba and names of foreigners than  Igbo names.

He also alleged that the Hope Uzodima’s rulling All Progressive Congress, APC  has harvested over 10 million bank accounts for operation wire, wire as part of efforts to rig the 2023 general election.

Besides, there have been series of attacks on INEC  offices in Imo State in what many alleged is targeted at making it impossible for the electoral umpire to use BVAS for the election in Imo State.
