2023: Southeast PDP Declares Support For Atiku

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders in the Southeast have assured former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the zone’s total support for him in 2023 general elections.

The stakeholders revealed these during the PDP Zonal Stakeholders’ Meeting with Atiku in Enugu on Tuesday.

The National Vice Chairman, PDP, South-East Zone, Chief Ali Odefa said, in his welcome address, that the party was one in the region and devoid of division as is being speculated.

“Come election next year, we will demonstrate that Southeast is PDP and PDP is Southeast,” he said.

Speaking in the same line, Sen. Adolphus Wabara, said that Igbos were for Atiku, stressing that PDP played a major impact in the South-East region.

Wabara, who is the Acting Chairman, Board of Trustees (BOT) of the PDP, said Igbos had not been favoured in the past seven years and still counting, saying that only Atiku, if elected, as president could wipe their tears.

“We will vote entirely in the zone for PDP as we did in the last election and we will do it again.

“Just go and sleep because all the political leaders of Igbo extraction are here. PDP will win Southeast clearly,” he said.

Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi in his address, assured the presidential candidate that Enugu State was essentially for PDP.

In his remarks, the presidential candidate of the PDP appreciated the teeming support of the South East over the years and assured them of inclusion in the electioneering process.

He further charged all stakeholders to work assiduously towards ensuring the victory of the party come 2023.
