The Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, on Saturday, endorsed Governor Francis Nwifuru for a second term.
Umahi warned that intending governorship candidates can only contest against Nwifuru on social media.
He issued the warning during the Ohanivo 2025 New Yam Festival in Onicha LGA of Ebonyi State.
According to Umahi: “Those who refuse to hear they will hear us because the kingdom of God suffered violence and then we are going to be very vocal to let our people know that people are tackling the council without knowledge.
“We want to be part of a united Nigeria, we want to be treated fairly, we want to be counted and the President is doing that.
“So we have no reason not to support him, we have no reason not to support Governor Francis Nwifuru.
“Let me tell you something, If you want to struggle for governor with Nwifuru, you have to do it on social media. Because you will not come to Ebonyi State to reap where you did not sow.
“They thought that father and son will be quarreling so they would reap where they did not show. It’s a lie.
“It’s Governor Nwifuru for eight years, Tinubu for eight years and nothing will stop it because God has said it.”
