Former Nationwide Youth chief of the Peoples Democratic Celebration, PDP, Sunday Udeh-Okoye, has predicted a landslide victory for the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Enugu State in the 2027 common election.
He made this assertion following the mass defection of members of the Peoples Democratic Celebration, PDP, to the ruling APC.
Udeh-Okoye, who not too long ago dumped PDP for APC, mentioned the 2027 presidential election will be a walkover for the ruling get together in the state.
“Within the subsequent election, it will be a landslide for the APC in Enugu,” he declared.
When requested if APC might win the presidential election in Enugu if Peter Obi is on the poll, the previous PDP chieftain mentioned the ruling get together would win “irrespective of who’s on the poll.”
In accordance with him, APC has taken over the PDP construction in Enugu, including that Peter Obi’s candidacy and his Obidient motion can not cease APC in the state.
He added that Obi, who ran on the Labour Celebration platform in the 2023 presidential election, defeated APC in Enugu as a result of the get together had no construction in the state.
“Those that received elections for the get together at the moment, we weren’t in APC, now all of us are in APC. Anyone you want in any political get together, I guarantee you, in Enugu State, APC will win,” he added.
Udeh-Okoye countered the declare that Southeasterners received’t vote for APC, saying the Enugu Authorities has ample marketing campaign supplies, including that Governor Mbah has delivered on his guarantees to the Enugu folks.
He acknowledged that Ndigbo would embrace APC, noting that the area’s perceived aversion to the ruling get together was resulting from former President Muhammadu Buhari’s alleged disposition in direction of the area.
With Governor Mbah’s defection to APC, three out of the 5 states in the Southeast are actually below the management of the ruling get together.
