The Ebonyi State Government said on Sunday it has no plan whatsoever to bribe the election petition tribunal judges in a bid to pervert the course of justice and obtain undue favour from them.
The state government made this known through the Commissioner of Information and State Orientation, Jude Okpor, who reacted to an allegation by the president of the Association of Ebonyi Indigenes Socio-Cultural in the Diaspora (AEISCID), Paschal Oluchukwu.
Recall
that Oluchukwu had accused the Ebonyi State Government, led by Governor Francis Nwifuru, of attempting to hijack the course of justice with plans to use one billion naira deducted from the local government area allocation to bribe judges in order to procure a favourable judgement from the tribunal.
Okpor warned Oluchukwu to desist from being used by desperate politicians who were rejected by the citizens of the state during the last governorship election in the state.
