Senator Nwagu emphasized that the PDP is now ready to rebuild and reposition itself, noting that the party “cannot die” and expressing confidence that true leadership has finally arrived. Egwu thanked PDP National Secretary Senator Samuel Anyanwu for promoting the party’s interests in the region.
Caretaker Committee Chairman Ekuma expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from party leaders and members, assuring that the committee is committed to fulfilling its mandate and preparing the party for the 2027 general election.
The appointment of the Caretaker Committee is viewed as a crucial step toward revitalizing the PDP in Ebonyi State and positioning it for future electoral success. The meeting demonstrated unity and purpose among party leaders, focusing on rebuilding and strengthening the party’s structures. With the 2027 election on the horizon, observers will closely watch the PDP’s efforts to rebuild and reposition itself in the state.
