Former Governor of Abia State, Okezie Ikpeazu, has pledged his unflinching commitment and loyalty to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
This is even as he assured members of the PDP that he won’t leave the party but he would work towards return the party to winning ways in the State.
Amid the recent wave of defection rocking the party, he also urged members of the party to remain loyal and committed to ensuring a return to power come 2027.
He spoke while addressing PDP faithful from Abia South at his Umuobiakwa country home on Saturday.
Ikpeazu underscored the need for dedication and unwavering support from party members during the challenging phase.
He urged them to remain steadfast and not abandon the party in difficult times, assuring the PDP members that he would continue to support the PDP, given its role in his political journey.
Speaking on the wave of defections following the party’s loss to the Labour Party in 2023, Ikpeazu encouraged PDP members in Obingwa to stay focused and undeterred by the defections.
Acknowledging the party’s current struggles, he reassured members that better days lied ahead, and those who remained loyal would eventually reap the benefits when the tides turned in PDP’s favour.
The erstwhile Governor lauded the new executive of the State Working Committee of the Party led by Abraham Amah, describing him as a man whose leadership would return the party back to power in 2027
