Top members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) recently gathered for a stakeholders’ meeting in Abia North. This meeting was focused on revitalizing the party to take back power in the state by 2027.

Attendees from the five local governments in the region came together with a shared commitment. They aimed to move past the divisive issues that had hindered the party in the past.

During the meeting, held at the home of Mandela Obasi, a member of the Abia State House of Assembly represented Ohafia North. PDP Chairman Abraham Amah expressed strong confidence that the party would make a comeback. He stated that the PDP’s candidates for the 2027 elections would be chosen through fair primaries. In addition, they would need to have the capacity to win.

Amah emphasized that the days of sentiment and impunity were over for the PDP. He insisted that the party was now more connected with the people. He also issued a stern warning to anyone pretending to be a member of the PDP while working against its interests. Also stressing that such actions would have consequences.

Mandela Obasi and Emmanuel Ndubuisi, who represent Ohafia North and Bende South in the state assembly, also spoke at the meeting. Both assured that they would remain loyal to the PDP and work for its future success. They said this despite some colleagues leaving the party for other political groups.

In a communique signed by the party’s leaders, including Chairman Amah, they made it clear that they were fully committed to ensuring the PDP reclaims the Abia State Government House in 2027.
