Hundreds of supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP Monday, trooped out to 59, Aba Road, Port Harcourt office of the Rivers State chapter of the party to welcome Chief Uche Secondus who at the weekend emerged the National Chairman of the party at the just concluded elective congress of the PDP.
The supporters comprising men, women and youths across the 23 local government areas of the state were seen jubilation over the outcome of the Congress which produced their kinsman as the leader of the party at the national level.
Speaking to our correspondent, one of the supporters who refused to give his name but said he is a member of the local government executive of the party expressed happiness with the emergence of Secondus saying it was a very positive development for the party both at the national and state levels.
“Voting Secondus as the National Chairman of the PDP at this time is a very wise decision by the party as it would strengthen the party and enable it to provide quality opposition to the Nigerian people”, he stated.
He added; “Secondus has remained a pillar in PDP and he has the capacity to lead the party out of the woods and place on a strong pedestal not only to strongly contest the 2019 election but like he said after his election, sack the APC non-performing administration at the centre”.
Meanwhile, the chairman of the Rivers State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Felix Obuah has also stated that with the election of Prince Uche Secondus as the new National Chairman of the party, the PDP is now stronger and better positioned to coast to victory in 2019.
Obuah in a statement congratulating the new National Chairman, described Prince Uche Secondus as eminently qualified for the enormous responsibility having served the Party in various capacities which have prepared him with the requisite experience and skills for the task.
According to the Rivers PDP boss, as a former State Chairman, National Organizing Secretary and Acting National Chairman of the PDP, Prince Uche Secondus knows the areas of strength and challenges of the Party which would be exploited to determine the new policy direction of the Party with a view to strengthening, unifying and making the Party greater than ever.
While urging all the levels of the PDP leadership, members and supporters to rally round the new National Chairman, Bro Obuah appealed to other Party members yet to return to the fold to take advantage of the new national leadership under Prince Uche Secondus to do so and help accomplish the desire of majority of Nigerians to have the PDP back on the saddle of national leadership.
“I make no doubt about the ability and capabilities of our new National Chairman and his executive members not only because of their intimidating experiential credentials but also, are some of the strongest and most dependable democrats of Nigeria’s contemporary politics and will surely bring their wealth of experience to bear in our new PDP National Leadership.
Again, the total trust and confidence reposed in them, I believe, will continue to serve as a source of inspiration to them to make extra efforts in forging a new sense of unity as never had before, among our Party faithful across the country”, Bro Obuah declared.
Congratulating the new National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, and the entire New Exco members for their well deserved victories, Bro Obuah also specially commended and thanked the State Governor, Chief Barr. Nyesom Wike for making the State Chapter of the PDP proud and solidly standing behind, and ensuring the victory of Prince Uche Secondus at the National Convention.
While also urging the new National Chairman of the Party, Prince Uche Secondus to continue to work for the good and progress of the Party, Bro Obuah said the Party in Rivers State will continue to pray God to grant him the strength, good health and wisdom to discharge his duties creditably, expressing optimism that victory belongs to the PDP in 2019 General Elections.
