Today (Saturday, April 9, 2021), I met with my brothers, Mr. Peter Obi, Mazi Sam Ohuabunwa and Dr. Nwachukwu Anakwenze. All of us have declared intention to run for the office of president of Nigeria and have obtained the nomination form of our great party the PDP.
The main purpose of our meeting was for us to resolve to work together to promote understanding, unity and collaboration among the four of us and any other person from the South East zone who may later join in the race.
We are mindful of the need for us to run our campaigns in a manner that is devoid of rancour and acrimony in the interst of the cohesion and solidarity of our zone; the victory of our great party in the 2023 elections, and the unity, peace and progress of our country.
We had a very fruitful meeting in an atmosphere of friendliness, conviviality and respect for one another.
At the end of our meeting, we addressed the media on our resolutions as follows:
1) That we have agreed to work together as a Team.
2) That we will work together to ensure that a South Eastern emerges as PDP flag bearer;
3) That we intend to consult with other zones on this issue and it is based on fairness and equity;
4) That in doing so it is important to note that we have always supported other zones and we now expect them to reciprocate.
I am proud of my brothers who, by their conduct today, displayed an uncommon maturity, and love for, and commitment to the unity of our dear country.
We ask fellow Nigerians to give us the chance to fix this country.
Together we will get Nigeria to work again. A Greater Nigeria I see.
