The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) South East zone has unanimously nominated Senator Samuel Anyanwu as its consensus candidate for the National Secretary at the forthcoming National Convention of the party.
The National Vice Chairman of the party in the Southeast Zone, Chief Ali Odefa, disclosed this at the end of the party’s zonal caucus meeting in Enugu.
According to Odefa, the nomination of Anyanwu has proven that PDP in the Southeast is more than ever prepared and ready for the task ahead to reclaim power at the Federal level in 2023.
He said: “The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Southeast zone has once again displayed its maturity and readiness to reclaim all its stolen mandates in the zone through the peaceful and united manner in which the zone arrived at a consensus in nominating an illustrious son of the zone, Sen. Samuel Nnaemeka Anyanwu (Sam Daddy) as the zone’s sole candidate for the position of National Secretary of our great party ahead of our national convention.
“The PDP in the Southeast by this honourable and uniting act has once again put its detractors who thought that the fortunes of the party will be destabilized by the ceding of the plum position to the zone.
“We are sincerely grateful to our leaders in the zone who despite their natural human differences have united and formed a common front in our avowed reclamation of the Southeast for our great party. Despite the desperation of political jobbers and power mongers who have adopted all manner of undemocratic moves to lure away our members, the Southeast remains a stronghold of the PDP.
“we assure our teeming members and supporters that our great party remains strong, firm, on ground and poised for victory as the 2023 general elections approaches,” he said
The meeting was attended by Enugu Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi; Abia Governor Okezie Ikpeazu; former Senate President Sen. Anyim Pius Anyim; Sen. Enyinnaya Abaribe; Sen. Ike Ekweremadu; Sen. Sam Egwu; Sen. Obinna Ogba and other Senators and House of Rep. members.
