The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) issues a formal apology to the people of Abia State, acknowledging that valuable lessons have been learned.

The Abia State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has publicly apologized to the people of Abia State for failing to meet their expectations in recent years.

The party acknowledged that this was a major contributing factor to their loss in the last gubernatorial election.

During a press conference held at the PDP secretariat in Umuahia, the Vice Chairman of the party and Acting Publicity Secretary, Abraham Amah, expressed remorse for the significant mistakes that were made and assured the public that the party is determined to rectify these errors.

Amah emphasized the party’s commitment to adopting a different approach going forward. He also indicated that the party was happy to report that it remains strong across the 17 Local Government Areas of the state.

Amah expressed confidence that the Abia PDP will regain its strength, particularly with the expected addition of influential politicians to the party in the near future.

“It is customary for an Iroko tree to shed its leaves during the dry season. That doesn’t mean the end of the tree, but to create an avenue for the tree to grow new leaves.

“In the past few months, our party has witnessed some shedding. It’s a necessary change which we are managing.

“Nature abhors vacuum. People left the party, but in the coming days more political heavyweights will be joining the party to replace the ones that left.

“Once you vacate your seat, another will definitely take over. PDP remains strong, we are not deterred. We remain the party to beat come 2027”.
