Kennedy Iyere Is a Confirmed Political Swindler
3 min read…He is not to be taken seriously
A frontline governorship aspirant on the platform of the Accord Party, Ambassador Curtis Eghosa Ugbo says his attention has been drawn to publications trending online that he has threatened to kill Comrade Kennedy Iyere over issues bordering on finance.
Cultis Ugbor noted that “I want to state here unequivocally that Comrade Iyere’s claim according to the report is aimed at maligning my character and misrepresent my intentions.
“The three-man conspiracy mentioned by him is a figment of his imagination as it has nothing to do with me; he has been having problems with the party since after the primaries because Kennedy Iyere did not spend a kobo before and after the primaries and he has been owing them.
He refused to pay the money for the Nomination and Express of Interest Form even two weeks after the Governorship primaries was conducted on the 17th February, 2024 and the party threatened to replace him with his Deputy, Dr Bright Enabulele after due investigation and consultation on issues of credibility bordering on finance”.
Dr. Bright Enabulele was asked by the party to pay the Seven Million Naira (N7, 000,000) and he paid but Kennedy Iyere couldn’t pay and it was discovered that he owed a lot of persons even outside the party money, even my humble self and some other persons in the party that used their hard earned money to rescue him during the primary that brought him in as the governorship candidate.
The Accord Party in it’s wisdom deemed it necessary to recall him as they can not field a candidate that can not be trusted with public funds when eventually elected into office as governor.
Instead of paying us our money back and thanking us for standing by him in his moment of need, he resorted to insulting and roping us up by alleging that I have sent him death threat message and also deleted the message as soon as I discovered he has read it. Is that not too childish.
Iyere is owing us money, he refused to pay. I sponsored his primaries and he promised that he was going to return my money, he’s owing me over three million naira; he’s owing one Tony Okon over 1.8 million naira and one other Osagie Osazuwa, two hundred thousand naira. Since after the primaries we have not seen Iyere till now, even I was told he was in Benin, he refused to come and pay me my money, instead he’s insulting me, insulting everybody, threatening everybody. He’s the one threatening that he will kill his head, he can’t kill me because he’s owing me money; he has to pay me my money, am asking him to pay me my money, that’s all. I don’t have any problem with him”.
Tell him to pay me my money, its him that wants to kill himself. He should pay me what he’s owing me. I have already reported him to the police, I’ve reported him to the Palace of the Oba of Benin. He will come and tell the world if he’s owing me or not, if he says he’s not owing me, let him come and swear before the gods of the land.
All effort to reach Kennedy Iyere as at the time of filing in this report prove abortive.
