The newly elected People's Democratic party PDP 1st Vice Chairman, Ebonyi Central, Chief Kevin Chukwu has vowed to unite all aggrieved members of the party in the zone and make the party more stronger than ever before.
Chief Kevin Chukwu disclosed this during an interaction with our correspondent in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State Capital, Sunday.
Chukwu, who is the chairman, Ochiri Ozua Youth Foundation, noted that though, the party had suffer some disagreement in the past, but the successful State Congress held on Saturday, 2nd November has signalled a new beginning for the party in the state and called on all PDP members to join hands to restore the lost glory of the party and make it work again.
The PDP First Vice Chairman for Ebonyi Central thanked God for the suçcess of the congress and called on the leaders of the party in the zone to join force with him to unite all aggrieved members of the party for the good of all.
"All I can say is Glory to God for me emerging as the first Vice Chairman, Ebonyi Central Zone of the people's Democratic party PDP. Am happy for the confidence and trust that has been bestowed on me, in order for us to achieve total success in the forthcoming election in the state, and most importantly, in order to put the party together. You know before the state congress on the second of this month, they had been a lot of squabble in the party, but having done the congress now, everything has calm down, the party is now together as one. So, for me, this position is not going to be an easy task, I don't see it easy at all, but with the support of the stakeholders, our elders and our supporters we will be able to come together and discuss how to move the party forward and bring the members together so that we be that formidable force that will stand against any other political force in the state.
"We are going to revisit reasons why some of our leaders left the party especially those in my zone. We have to discuss with them, know their pain, know the major reasons for which they left the party and see how to bring them back to the party and let them know that there are still position for them in the party.
"I want to assure you that PDP is coming back together stronger and more united. We have been able to conduct a successful State Congress, infact, the most successful conducted State Congress was the one that was conducted on the second day of November, 2024. In all my years in PDP, since 1999, I have not witnessed such a successful Congress. With what happened, I can say, we can still bring those who have left the party home".
On those saying that the congress was not authorized by the PDP National Leadership, this is what he has to say,
"You know politics and politicians, when it's not favouring you, you will like to go the negative side. The Congress was duly approved by the national Secretariat of PDP. There were officials from the Head office. Materials were released from the Head office and the Congress was conducted by officials from the Head office, so whoever that is saying that the election was not valid is ignorant of the fact on ground and should be ignored.
"We should keep the spirit High and keep faith with PDP as the party is going to bounce back as never before", he concluded.
