VOICE OF HOPE: Bishop Godfrey Onah Casts Ballot in Enugu North Bye-Election, Condemns Mass Voter Disenfranchisement and Low Turnout Caused by State-Sponsored Lockdown

The Catholic Bishop of Nsukka Diocese, Most Rev. Godfrey Onah, has cast his ballot in the ongoing Enugu North Senatorial bye-election, delivering a powerful message of resilience to the electorate.

Despite these severe obstacles, Bishop Onah urged citizens not to lose hope in the democratic process, insisting that Nigeria will eventually get its elections right if every individual stands firm and plays their part to defend the ballot.
