“This morning as early as 5:30 am, our phones began to ring getting calls from people living around our campaign office here at mile 50 Abakaliki that it has been attacked by some hoodlums. We rushed here and discovered that some of our billboards have been damaged by the hoodlums.

“To discover that some faceless individuals will take it upon themselves to attack us in this manner is something we are not going to take. In as much as we are not going to accuse anybody, we believe that for people to attack us, is doing that at his own risk. Even if you are doing it that somebody sent you from anywhere or any quarter,
we know that Ebonyi as a PDP state cannot encourage anybody to destroy presidential candidate billboards.
