Okwu, who said the 2023 governorship elections in the state should not be “a do-or-die affair,” noted that only one person would win the election.

In his words: “The media briefing became necessary owing to the latest developments in the politics of Enugu.

“Now that this has been laid to rest, candidates and their supporters should embark on issue-based campaigns. They should tell the Enugu people what they have in stock for them if elected governor. Name-calling, character assassination, and bitter politics should stop. There is life after the 2023 elections.”
