The Peoples Democratic Party in Abia State has poured encomiums on stakeholders of the party in Umunneochi Local Government Area of the State for sensitising it locals on the need to vote PDP in all elective positions come the 2019 general elections.
The wife of Abia State Governor Mrs Nkechi Ikpeazu who led PDP women to the area today in campaign for the re-election of Gov. Okezie Ikpeazu and others vying for positions under the party said that she was overwhelmed with the massive support for the party and its flag bearers in the area.
According to her, “what I have been hearing about this area is totally different from what I have seen today, the rural women, the youths and the people of Umunneochi are all endorsing PDP and its flag bearers here”.
“Another thing I am appealing is for us to conduct ourselves peacefully to vote out the All Progressive Congress party that has brought untold hardship to us all”.
As you all know the government with lean resources has done one project here or another and on my own little complement we have built houses for indigent people here and through Vicar Hope Foundation’s Springboard Skills Acquisition programmes we have also empowered a lot of people to start business of their choice, so what we are encouraging and soliciting you is to vote for Ikpeazu again to consolidate on his programmes of making Abia the cynosure of all eyes for good in Nigeria.
While the coordinator of the PDP women wing central working committee Dr. Elizabeth Esochaghi said the turn out of the masses has shown that Umunneochi is a fertile ground for the party.
The immediate past Chairman of the LGA, Barrister Okey Igwe, who himself is vying to represent his constituency in the state house of assembly was of the opinion that PDP would coast to victory in all levels of the election because APC has set the country backward.
According to him, “APC at all level has indeed dashed the hope of this country by being rudderless, there is no rule of law, people are suffering and Nigeria as a country has never been polarized as it is today, so PDP has come to give the country a new hope and opportunities where everyone is equal “.
However, the wife of the former Governor of the state, Mrs Odochi Orji said that no matter how desperate APC want to remain in power that our permanent voters card is the only instrument that will be used to vote them out to make Nigeria a better country for us all.
