In a statement on his behalf by his Special Assistant, Uche Onwuchekwa, Madumere  described the alleged action of Governor Rochas Okorocha – led election committee as not only mischievous but morally unacceptable. He reminded the purported committee of the resolution of Imo All Progressives Congress Stakeholders (Coalition) not to go into any repeat of primary elections owing to the fact that the leadership, aspirants and members of the our great party were never consulted albeit informed of any election.

The Deputy Governor therefore wondered why impunity has continued to rein supreme in the State unabated.

He therefore took exception to allotments of votes to them having opted out, an act he described as fraud.

Meanwhile, he also averred that their group of 6 aspirants has been vindicated as Governor Okorocha’s brother-in-law, Chief Chuks Ololo who also pulled out of the purported exercise, wondering why Imo All Progressives Congress governorship primary election should be between Governor Okorocha’s son-in-law, Mr. Uche Nwosu and his estate Manager, Mr. Chima Anozie.
