Leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in South East have endorsed former Senate President and Secretary to the Federation, Senator Anyim Pius Anyim for Presidency in 2023.
The leaders and stakeholders of the party in South East unanimously endorsed Senator Anyim during a briefing in Enugu State.
In a statement made available to 9News Nigeria by H. E. Senator T. A. Orji stated that the leaders of the party unanimously endorsed Senator Anyim’s aspiration with all conviction and enthusiasm and eagerly commend him to the restÂ
of the nation as a worthy leader who will pilot the affairs of the
nation towards greater security, unity and prosperity for allÂ
citizens.
The statement reads in parts,
“Today, 6th January, 2022, His Excellency Senator Pius Anyim Pius, metÂ
with us the Zonal and State Executives of the Peoples Democratic PartyÂ
(PDP) as well as select political leaders and elders from across Abia,Â
Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo States, making up the five states ofÂ
the South East geo political zone of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The occasion was a special briefing session by Senator Anyim PiusÂ
Anyim. The purpose of the session was to consult the leaders of theÂ
geo political zone on his aspiration to contest the 2023 presidency onÂ
the platform of the PDP. In addition, it was an opportunity for theÂ
Senator to acquaint the leaders thus gathered with the progress andÂ
outcomes of his wide- ranging consultations with the leaders of theÂ
various sections of the federation, on both his aspiration and theÂ
general state of the nation.Â
In the light of the highpoints of the Senator’s briefing, we resolved asÂ
follows:
1. We wish to express our profound gratitude to His Excellency,
Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State and His Excellency
Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State for their outstanding
leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party in the South East
Zone and their clear articulation of the interests of the zone at
all platforms and organs of the party.
2. That the choice of who becomes President of Nigeria in 2023 has
become a strategic imperative for the future of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria. In this regard, the vision, capacity,
experience and disposition of the next president will make the
difference about the socio-political stability and economic
development of the country.
3. That Senator Anyim, through us here assembled, wishes toÂ
express his profound gratitude for the overwhelming warmthÂ
and understanding which leaders across the nation showed to him and his aspiration throughout his wide-ranging andÂ
extensive consultations so far
4. That we appeal to the Peoples Democratic Party in the interest
of equity, justice and harmonious national cohesion to zone
their presidential ticketto the Southern zones of the country and
the South East in particular.
5. That the people of the South East geo political zone have earned
the right to occupy the office of President of the Federal Republic
of Nigeria in 2023 on account of their eminent qualifications and
overwhelming contributions to the development of all parts of
the federation through the years.
We further reiterate that the choice of a South East citizen as
presidential candidate of the party in 2023 will guarantee to
every Nigerian a sense of equity, justice and inclusion in the
management of the affairs of the nation. In our view, this is the
best way of ensuring that we build a nation that leaves no one or
group behind.
6. On account of the foregoing, we congratulate Senator Anyim
Pius Anyim for the patriotism of his decision to offer himself for
national service by aspiring to contest in the 2023 Presidential
race. We take due cognizance of his precious record of
distinguished and unblemished service as President of the
Senate and Secretary to the Government of the Federation. In
these positions, he distinguished himself as a detribalized
statesman, consensus builder and true nationalist.
We, therefore, unanimously endorse his aspiration with all
conviction and enthusiasm and eagerly commend him to the rest
of the nation as a worthy leader who will pilot the affairs of the
nation towards greater security, unity and prosperity for all
citizens.
7. In furtherance of the foregoing, we hereby oblige Senator Anyim
his request that we all join him to persuade and reassure every
part of the country to do justice to the South East and thereby
promote equity and justice as core values of our nation.
8. In assuring Senator Anyim of our support for his aspiration, we
wish to also extend the same hand of support and solidarity to
all qualified and deserving sons and daughters of our zone with
similar aspiration and who reach out to us as Senator Anyim has
done.
9. It is our solemn appeal to all the peoples of the South East zone
to remain steadfast in the hope that we can all join hands in
solidarity with all other parts of the federation to build a
prosperous nation founded on democracy, equity and inclusion
to the benefit of this great nation.
10.
Long Live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
