- Mulade Issue Strong Warning Against Purported “Step-down” Perpetrators, Statement Fake, Fraudulent, Handiwork Of Desperate Losers
The attention of Chief Sheriff Mulade and his supporters has been drawn to a fabricated and misleading statement currently circulating on social media, falsely claiming that Chief Sheriff Mulade conceded defeat and endorsed another aspirant in the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) primary election for the Warri Federal Constituency.
We wish to state categorically, unequivocally and without any ambiguity that the said statement is fake, fraudulent, concocted and the handiwork of desperate, bad-faith individuals who have been rattled by the overwhelming, massive and landslide victory recorded by Chief Sheriff Mulade during the primary election.
The authors of this malicious publication are political merchants of falsehood whose only objective is to create confusion, mislead party faithful and manipulate public perception after suffering a humiliating rejection by delegates across the Warri Federal Constituency.
For the avoidance of doubt, Chief Sheriff Mulade remains firmly in the race and is the duly elected winner of the NDC primary election for the Warri Federal Constituency.
.
At no time did he issue any statement conceding defeat, stepping down, withdrawing from the contest or endorsing any other aspirant.
Those behind this reckless misinformation campaign are obviously threatened by the unprecedented support enjoyed by Chief Sheriff Mulade among party members, delegates, youths, women and stakeholders across Warri North, Warri South and Warri South-West Local Government Areas.
It is unfortunate that instead of accepting the reality of the outcome of the primary election, certain disgruntled elements have resorted to forgery, propaganda and the dissemination of fake statements in a futile attempt to overturn the will of the people.
We therefore urge members of the public, party faithful and the media to disregard the fabricated statement in its entirety. It did not emanate from Chief Sheriff Mulade and does not represent his position or that of his campaign structure.
Chief Sheriff Mulade remains committed to the ideals of democracy, transparency and justice, and is confident that the authentic results of the primary election will stand the test of scrutiny.
No amount of blackmail, misinformation, forgery or political desperation can overturn the mandate freely given victory to Chief Sheriff Mulade by delegates of the Warri Federal Constituency.
The victory remains intact, the mandate remains valid, and the aspiration remains on course.
Signed:
Comrade Friday Ugedi,
Director, Media and Publicity of Team
Chief Sheriff Mulade Campaign Organization
