The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Imo State, Senator Samuel Nnaemeka Anyanwu, has denied media reports suggesting that he was being sponsored to run for governorship seat of the state.
Special adviser on Media to Anyanwu, who is the national secretary of PDP, Ikenna Onuoha, in a press statement made available to LEADERSHIP on Thursday, described the report as misleading and mischievous.
He said, Following this fake news, our phones were inundated with calls by well meaning Nigerians, who in their curiosity sought to ascertain the veracity or authenticity of the story.
For the avoidance of doubt, this story is not only false, baseless, and misleading, but a brazen concoction garnished by individuals already afraid of PDP and its Governorship candidate to deceive the general public.
He said peddlers of the falsehood should not forgot that in 2019, Senator Anyanwu ran for governorship election when the person said to be sponsoring him today was also in the race.
The statement continued The questions are who sponsored Senator Anyanwu in the 2019 Governorship poll if in their mischievous imagination, he can be sponsored today
Whose interest was the PDP Guber candidate protecting as far back as 2019 when some of those championing the fake news today were struggling to be relevant
