Election is over, free our governorship candidate, Labour Party begs abductors

National Organising Secretary of Labour Party, Chief Clement Ojukwu, has called on the abductors of the party’s candidate in Anambra State governorship election, Mr. Obiorah Agbadimalo, to set him free.

Agbadimalo was kidnapped on Saturday, September 18, while leaving a campaign ground at Ezinifitte Nnewi South Local Government Area to Azia in Ihiala Local Government Area of the state.

He had remained in the hands of the abductors.

“Chief Obiora Agbasimelo has not been set free by his kidnappers till date. His absence greatly affected Labour Party and the morale of its teeming supporters.

“His vibrant, youthful nature, well-educated and informed campaign strategy and oratory rattled the opposition and gave the masses great hope of a landslide victory in the Election.

“Unfortunately, he was kidnapped and kept away from campaigns, debates and discussions prior to the election. Today, the election has come and gone.

“On behalf of our great Labour Party, our teeming supporters and his wife, children and family, we humbly and most passionately appeal and beg the kidnappers to kindly set him free.

“We kindly appeal to the abductors to release him to rejoin his troubled family and traumatised wife and children after a very long hostage and exclusion from the rest of humankind.

“We make this appeal in the name of God Almighty and believe that our appeal will yield positive result to the glory of God.

“We urge all good-spirited human beings in the state to join us in this clarion call,” he appealed.
