Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom has assured the People's Democratic Party (PDP) that the party will be able to take over national leadership in 2023.
Ortom made this promise yesterday at St. Francis Primary School Aliade in Gwer East Local Government Area, where he received thousands of new PDP members who had defected from the APC, APGA, LP, and other parties.
The governor, who was represented by his Commissioner for Information and Culture, Rt. Hon Ngunan Beeka Addingi, stated: "I'm glad you saw the light and decided to leave the darkness behind and collaborate with the governor, who has done an excellent job for the people of Gwer East. Please keep mobilizing others because the road ahead is longer than the one behind. We all go to the same markets as members of the ruling party, and no one is immune to rising inflation. By God's grace, the PDP will be able to win Nigeria in 2023 "....
In his remarks, Sir John Ngbede, State Chairman of the People's Democratic Party, PDP, praised the defectors for choosing virtue over evil and promised them equal treatment with others.
"The PDP has no new or veteran members. Every member will be provided with the same level of care and benefits "Ngbede stated unequivocally.
Hon Emmanuel Zungwe, Chairman of the PDP in the local government, welcomed the large crowd and thanked them for coming despite their hectic schedules, wishing them safe travel back to their respective destinations.
Engr Nathaniel Apir (Mallam Gambo), Engr Rogers, Engr Peter Damkor, and Elder John Asen, leaders of the new decampees and those who embraced the umbrella earlier, responded independently but in the same vein, thanking PDP leaders for the warm reception and promising to reciprocate the kind gestures.
Aside from numerous appointments and project executives in local government, they stated that their return to the People's Democratic Party was due to Gov. Samuel Ortom's tenacity in standing up to external aggressors who sought to take over the state and subjugate the people.
