.Says APC Has Failed .
.
A front-line Chairmanship
Aspirant for Imo state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Hon Ngozi Ogbu has said the All Progressive Congress, APC
has failed the nation and Imo State, describing the ruling party as messengers
of Change that have proved to be incapable of fulfilling its numerous campaign promises
and incapable of managing the nation.
Speaking to journalists in
Owerri, he said in Imo State, the people are patiently waiting for the PDP to
take over the reins of governance in 2019.
Ogbu, a former Local Government
Chairman of Okigwe LGA in Imo North senatorial district said when elected
Chairman of the PDP in Imo State he will reposition the party to be able to win
the 2019 elections in the State.

He said what the PDP needs to
secure victory in the State in 2019 is to reconnect the party to the
grassroots, stressing that he is vast experience in managing and handling the
grassroots.
Ogbu said “I have the experience in managing the
grassroots. I have been a local government chairman for four years at a time the
outcome of elections in the country reflected the wishes of the people.
“I have in-depth experience of
youth management having served as a state youth leader of Imo PDP.
The former lawmaker said what
the PDP needs to get its acts together in Imo State is for the party leaders and members
to be disciplined, vowing to restore discipline to the party in the State.
On allegations that he is
sponsored for the plum job by one of the leaders of the party to aid the guber
ambition of such leader, he said nobody is behind his chairmanship aspiration.
“Nobody is sponsoring me. I m
sponsoring myself. Sponsorship for elective position is not a guarantee for
victory. PDP is a democratic political
party and we are in opposition. The party is conscious of this fact and therefore imposition
will no longer be possible anymore in Imo PDP.
Reacting to a question that the
PDP in Imo State is torn apart by two factions, he said there are no factions in the party. He
said there is a Caretaker Committee in place instituted by the national leadership
of the party, describing those causing confusion in the party as disgruntled
elements.
He called on party members in
Imo State to faithfully and courageously come out during the party’s congresses
to elect credible leaders from the ward to the state levels during congress.
