Abia PDP on saturday, 18th of November 2017, suffered another blow at Oma Egwu ward in Ekenobizi, Umuahia south LGA, as chief Emmanuel Egwu (Esere) former Special Adviser to governor Okezie Ikpeazu officially declared his readiness to join the APC, the occasion which took place at his country home in Ekenobizi had in attendance the APC ward executives, the LGA chairman, and many other notable APC stalwarts including Chief Acho Obioma, chief Mascot Uzor-Kalu, Chief Martin Apugo, Chief Asagwara Peter, Chief Chidi Wisdom, Mr. Destiny Chibuike Ukauwa (a.k.a shwarts), Chief Osondu Nwankwo and a host of other notable party chieftains were also on hand to welcome Chief Egwu into the APC.
Delivering his acceptance speech after filling the party’s registration
form, Chief Emmanuel Egwu said that he can no longer be in a party
whose leaders take pleasure in suffering the Abia populace, a party that
thrives in impunity and injustice, he said his decision to dump the PDP
was borne out of his innate conviction to join the progressives since
PDP in Abia has proved to be anti-people, during a chat with newsmen
chief Emmanuel Egwu said his decision to resign his appointment with the
state government was borne out of principle, he went further to say
that though Dr Okezie Ikpeazu’s government has demonstrated lack of
capacity to develop Abia beyond where he met it and has by its actions
further diminished the democratic fortunes of Abia state by increasing
suffering in the land, I hold nothing personal against him, he said.
Chief Emmanuel Egwu said that he is moving to the APC with all his supporters numbering over a thousand and promised to give the Umuahia south APC a befitting and fully furnished party secretariat.
