PDP South-East Chair Congratulates Anyanwu On Supreme Court Victory

The South-East National Vice Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hon Chidiebere Egwu has congratulated the National Secretary of the party, Senator Samuel Anyanwu over his victory at the Supreme Court on Friday.

Hon. Egwu also expressed satisfaction with the uprightness of the Justices of the Supreme Court for upholding the constitution of the party as well as the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

In a statement signed by him and made available to LEADERSHIP after the apex court ruling on Friday, Egwu described the ruling as a good omen for Nigeria democracy, adding that it has restored hope to millions of members of the PDP across Nigeria.

“This ruling also is a clear signal that political desperation and inordinate ambition cannot take anyone far,” Egwu noted.

He called on the National Secretary to join hands with other stakeholders and leaders of the main opposition party in the South-East to recall those who left the party due to what he termed the high-handedness of the expelled zonal chairman of the party, Chief Ali Odefa.

Egwu also pledged to join hands with the Anyanwu and the leaders of the party to ensure that all outstanding issues in the party, especially that the outstanding State Congresses in Ebonyi and Anambra states were conducted within the shortest possible time so that the PDP in the region can bounce back ahead of the next general elections.

He lamented that the PDP could not attract anyone to buy governorship forms in Anambra State due to alleged greed and selfish leadership of Odefa over fear of the unknown.

“Our immediate task now as leaders of the PDP in the South-East is to ensure that state congresses are conducted in Ebonyi and Anambra states.

“You can see that both states are suffering in the PDP and that is why no one bought form for the forthcoming November 2025 governorship election in Anambra State, with this ruling, valid congresses can now be conducted in those two states,” Egwu noted.
