Chief Theodore Orji, the senator representing Abia Central at the Senate, has told his supporters that he was not leaving the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for any other Party.
Speaking to his supporters and delegates at Urban Primary School venue of Ward 1 Congress for the Ward Congress of the Party, which held across the country last weekend, Chief Orji commended party members for the manner the Congress was held.
He urged members of the party to disregard all the antics of the opposition, “when I came into this venue everywhere was peaceful; we are not here to fight or quarrel but to exercise our rights as party members.
“We have decided to remain in this party, we are not leaving our party that we have built, if you go to another party definitely you become a tenant, but here in PDP, you will remain a Landlord.”
He charged the newly inaugurated Ward1 17 member executive not to betray the trust of fellow party members, “You are not the best amongst the other party men and women, this is a big trust which you must not betray this trust”.
In his acceptance speech after the election which was on a voice vote, the Ward 1 Chairman, Nnaji Otuonye on behalf of other executive members thanked Party supporters and members while pledged to live up to the expectation of members, “With God we are not going to sell this Party”.
It was gathered that Ward 1 in Umuahia North Council Area has the highest number of Polling Booths across the State.
