By Ella Michaels
In a shocking turn of events, a 'Juju' Priest from Rivers State led the campaign rally of Erasmus Tammy, the All Progressive Grand Alliance Party (APGA) councillorship candidate for Ward 17 in Port Harcourt Local Government (PHALGA), on Saturday, September 28, 2024 , The rally, held ahead of the October 5th LGA elections, saw the priest perform spiritual incantations, urging residents to vote for Tammy for effective representation.
The priest assured the people of Ward 17 that they wouldn't regret voting for Hon. Tammy, promising that he would deliver democracy's dividends to the ward. However, the spiritual leader also took a strong stance against election malpractice, praying against rigging and electoral fraud. In a bold move, he placed curses on anyone attempting to rig the election, including individuals, groups, or organizations .
This unconventional campaign strategy has sparked interest in the upcoming LGA elections. As the people of Port Harcourt prepare to head to the polls, it remains to be seen whether this spiritual endorsement will impact the outcome.
