CHIGOZIE AMADI
he leadership crisis in the Ebonyi State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party might have come to an end with the successful election of the state officers of the party.
The newly elected Chairman of the party, Peter Nwele, said the PDP would start bringing those that left the party back to form a formidable force to take over the state in 2027.
He said the state had been a PDP state and that the party would bounce back in 2027.
Nwele stated this during the state ward congress that produced him at the weekend.
The Congress held at the state secretariat of the party, was supervised by the 7-man committee from the National secretariat of the party (NWC), National Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) and security agencies.
“Ebonyi State is PDP right from time and it will continue to be in PDP. People say that there is crisis in PDP, there is no crisis in the party.
“The only thing we want to do now is to embark on bringing those who left the party back. PDP is a very large family that will accommodate all of us. So, we are ready to start bringing everyone back home.
“We are for forgiveness, we make peace for people to come back home so that we take back our lost mandate,” he stated.
Ugonna Ogbonna, Chairman of the Congress committee, described the exercise as peaceful and transparent and commended members of the party for conducting themselves orderly.
National Vice Chairman, South East of the party, Chief Ali Odefa, said the enthusiasm and love for PDP in the state and the country in general was still very strong.
