Neither am I going to support anybody. The one I supported you never helped anything but rather I was insulted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor accusing my first cousin, they have made a mistake. You know why? I was thinking I am strong; you are meeting a rock (Onuoha).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven the INEC chairman cannot tell him what to do. He is a stubborn man; he will tell him \u2018go to hell with your job\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou see the problem with Nigeria.
