Anambra
State governor, Willie Obiano, on Wednesday warned the Indigenous People of
Biafra to steer clear of the state during the November 18 poll.
The governor
threatened to go after anybody who would pose a threat to the poll, no matter
how highly placed.
The
governor, who insisted that there would be election in the state, said the
pro-Biafra agitators had no powers in the law to stop the poll.
He warned
those planning to disrupt the election to have a rethink or be ready to face
the full weight of the law.
He said “We
are going to go after them, we will deal with those who said there would be no
election in the state decisively.
“People are
free to vote candidates of their choice, you can see that in Anambra state
today people now sleep with their two eyes closed,” he insisted.
IPOB
had threatened that there would be no
election in Anambra state and the entire South East zone.
It was also
gathered that the secessionist group had planned to attack campaign rallies in
the state to create fears in the people about the poll.
