“I am therefore using this opportunity to implore our members to end the disagreements as the time to move forward is now.

PDP remains the only grassroots party in Ebonyi State, the PDP remains the hope of restoration for the oppressed people of our dear Ebonyi State, the PDP remains the hope and the way forward for Ndi Ebonyi. The time to recalibrate is now.
“Consequently, in this collective victory, I am calling on all members of our party, aspirants, and candidates for various elective positions under our beautiful umbrella to close ranks with one another. Let’s work together to revive the love and brotherhood that gave us victories in 1999 to date. Let us be reminded that PDP has hardly lost the election in Ebonyi State.
“In the next few days, we shall be rolling out our plans for greater PDP in Ebonyi State. The PDP is one united family, even though we may have different orientations, ambitions, and group loyalties, we are united under the capable umbrella.

I want to assure us all that we shall keep our eyes on the ball and, God willing, will eventually achieve the desired outcome. PDP is the most entrenched and dominant party in Ebonyi State. This is the fact that must now be re-enacted.
“Thank you all as I look forward to leading a united PEOPLES DEMOCRATIC PARTY in Ebonyi State”.
