[Opinion]: Why Ifeanyi Ubah was booed by Igbo traders during his campaign in Lagos (Video)

It's no longer news that Senator Ifeanyi Ubah of the Young Progressives Party (YPP), was roundly booed at in Alaba market, Lagos State, when he took his campaign train from Anambra to the nation's commercial capital city on Wednesday, 13th October, 2021. After pondering on this report, I came to a realization that, it's not proper for a contestant to contest in another man's land. "Imagine that a Northerner who is contesting for governorship in kano state, goes to Nnewi in Anambra State to do campaign. What do you think will be the reaction of the residents? It's obvious that they will disrupt the campaign.

Another reason for the booing could be that, Ifeanyi Ubah is allegedly up against Chukwuma Soludo of APGA, Andy Uba of APC and Valentine Ozigbo of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), among others.

In another report, there has been a spate of violence, killings and unrest in Anambra and in most of the southeast region over the forthcoming gubernatorial election, as candidates are unable to solicit for support or votes on the streets of Anambra, like they would have loved to. In order to tackle this issue, Usman Alkali Baba (the Inspector General of Police), in a recent report, deployed 34,587 police personnel and three Police Helicopters to Anambra State.

According to the IGP, the deployment is focused on creating a conducive and enabling environment that will guarantee the peaceful conduct of the forthcoming election in Anambra. He added that, the Force conducted an Election Security Threat Analysis and also developed a strategic election security operational plan to stabilize the prevailing security situation in the state.
