Former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), National Youth Leader, Sunday Udeh-Okoye, has disclosed that another Southeast governor will soon join the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Naijaonpoint reports that Udeh-Okoye’s comment comes in the wake of Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah‘s defection from the PDP to the APC.
During the official announcement of his defection, Mbah said the Igbos’ voice is not heard in the PDP, hence his decision to leave the party.
In an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Udeh-Okoye declared that Ndigbo are now part of the APC, stressing that another Southeast state will soon join the ruling party.
Udeh-Okoye insists that the APC did not threaten any Southeast governor into joining the party.
He said, “Ndigbo is now part and parcel of the APC, you can see us there. Just watch and see, very soon another state will fall to APC in the Southeast. Infact another State Governor in the SE will soon join the APC.
“How can APC threaten us? APC is not offering us anything other than we have found out that APC has good managers.
“The managers know those who to respect and obey, they know those who can give them victory in elections, they know those who they can’t touch.”
Speaking further, Ude-Okoye said that PDP would not be witnessing its current crisis if he had emerged as the party’s National Secretary.
He added, “If I had become the national secretary, certainly what is going on today in PDP wouldn’t have been going on.”
