The Enugu State chapter of the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN), on Wednesday dismissed certain reports in some national dailies alleging plans by the state chapter of TAN to disrupt the rally being organised by the Enugu State Movement for the Re- election of President Goodluck Jonathan, saying it will not join issues with ?chicken politicicians.?
The report further alleged that TAN Enugu, working with a federal lawmaker, had slated Electoral Ward meetings of it to distribute money for this purpose.
Speaking via a statement signed by the Publicity Secretary of TAN, Enugu State chapter, Mr Ugulu Ugulu, the group debunked the allegations saying that they were frivolous, baseless and laughable.
The statement said: ?It is a global knowledge that TAN is the flagship organisation in the campaign for the re-election of President
Goodluck Jonathan.
?It could also be recalled that Enugu State Government was the only South- East state not officially represented at the first geopolitical
zonal rally of TAN held in Awka, Anambra State on August 17.
?It was the Deputy Senate President, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, who saw to the distribution of the registers to all nooks and crannies of the state
and sponsored the mobilisation of the mammoth crowd that attended the Awka rally from Enugu.
?TAN Enugu State chapter has no problem with any pro-Jonathan rallies or groups because the more the merrier. We refuse to join issues with some chicken and petty politicians in Enugu State.?
