“No cause for alarm! I am here to clarify that I was not sacked. The Tribunal has simply ordered a re-run (supplementary election) in the 32 polling units where elections did not hold.

“We will continue working for Etiosa.

“I urge constituents to keep calm as we are unshaken. We will get through this together,” he said.
