In a bold effort to unite and invigorate the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Igbo-Etiti council area of Enugu State, renowned party leader Hon Chidera Nwodo has called upon party loyalists and local residents to rally behind the newly elected PDP Chairmanship Candidate, Dr. Eric Odo.
Addressing a passionate crowd on Wednesday at Ogbede, the council’s bustling headquarters, Nwodo expressed his unwavering support and allegiance to the state governor, Barr. Peter Ndubuisi Mbah, mere moments after the party’s primary election.
Amidst a sea of enthusiastic supporters, Nwodo passionately vowed to mobilize both electoral and financial resources to ensure a resounding victory for the chairmanship candidate and his deputy.
“The party has made its choice, and we must honor it. We need unity to deliver our candidates when the Enugu State Electoral Service Commission, ENSIEC, sets the date,” he declared, his voice ringing with conviction.
“Our great party, the Peoples Democratic Party, has spoken. This decision resonates deeply with our community, and I assure everyone of my unwavering support for the party and its candidates,” he continued, drawing cheers from the crowd.
He took a moment to express gratitude to Governor Mbah, crediting him for fostering a peaceful and fair electoral process. “We will continue to work hard and support his administration,” Nwodo noted, taking a stand that resonated with his audience.
When asked about his previous ambitions and the potential for protest, Nwodo firmly stated that the party’s decision is final and wisdom prevails. “My ambition does not worth anyone’s blood. We must throw our weight behind the candidate the party has chosen. Just because I couldn’t clinch the ticket this time doesn’t mean other opportunities won’t arise. I will lend my full support to Dr. Eric Ogbonna Odo through community engagement, logistics, and any resources we can muster,” he affirmed, reinforcing his commitment.
With a spirit of sportsmanship, Nwodo’s rallying words ignited his supporters, filling the air with enthusiasm and optimism as they pledged to do whatever it takes to secure victory for their candidates.
With Nwodo at the helm, his influence and determination signal a promising future for the PDP, positioning the party for a triumphant outcome in the forthcoming local government elections and solidifying its dominance in Enugu State.
