But Apugo, who addressed newsmen in his Campaign office along Bende Road, Umuahia, stated that he was conversant with the activities that took place in his constituency, which violated the electoral act of 2011 as amended.

 He said the presence of Onuigbo at the collation Centre was a gross violation of the electoral act, urging the INEC to disqualify him as a candidate as stipulated by the law.
