In a statement by Abia Onyike,
Director, Media, and Publicity, AnyiChuks GrassRoot Support Organization which was made available to newsmen in Abakaliki, the party through the support group noted that the court cases they had before now were a quest to engender internal democratic values in the party and not for personal interest.
The statement read in parts, “With the ruling of the Supreme Court today, 21st October 2022 dismissing all pending appeal cases on the PDP Governorship Primaries in Ebonyi state, all the litigations and disputations have been put to rest within the ranks of our great party.
“It is now obvious that we have to unite and fight for our common aspiration which is the takeover and rescue of our dear state from anti-democratic forces and to put Ebonyi state back on the path of unity, progress, and prosperity.
“It should be noted that the essence of the litigations was not necessarily powered play, but the quest to engender internal democratic values in our great party, the PDP particularly in Ebonyi State.
“Consequently, our dear leaders, stakeholders, teeming members, and supporters should note that this victory is for all of us. And this is the time to unite and fight our common foes and rejig our patriotic efforts to reverse the slide of our dear state into unnecessary rancor, acrimonies, and retrogression.
“Let us unite for the sake of the progress of Ebonyi State and posterity.
“The PDP remains the major political party with a household name in Ebonyi State.
“We must, therefore, display our ever-burning sense of patriotism, selflessness, and pursuit of the common good”.
