APC candidate, Dr Chris Ngige and the incumbent governor on November3, engaged in a war of words over the tragedy at the Adoration Ground last weekend.
Ngige whose reaction was contained in a statement signed by the Director of Media and Publicity of the Chris Ngige Campaign Organisation, Chief Charles Amilo, blasted Gov. Obi noting that the traditional recourse of blaming Sen. Ngige each time he (Obi) fails in one department of leadership or governance, should be a worn out excuse by now, which would certainly not work in the very serious circumstance at hand’
Sen Ngige, neither attended the crusade, knew nothing about it, nor received the report of the incident at the crusade in good time.
If Ndi Anambra who are not necessarily politicians spontaneously rejected Gov. Obi and his handpicked stooge during the night vigil, considering that Obi and his APGA team in uniform barged into their communion with God with fliers and sirens, and tear gas, why should Obi now blame Ngige?
Ngige therefore invited Gov Obi to rise to the responsibility of Governance in the remaining part of his tenure by promptly explaining to Ndi Anambra what his security details were reported to have done to create a stampede in the place of worship, as further obfuscation of facts from his government may build avoidable tension’

This stampede issue has made Ngige popular.
