Ebonyians not seeing any change in APC govt. In Ebonyi – PDP boss, Nwazunku

By Uchenna Okeh, Abakaliki

The Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Ebonyi State, Augustine Nwazunku has insisted that the people of the state is yet to see any change or development put in place by the government of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the state.

He equally lambasted some major stakeholders of PDP who recently defected to the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC.

Nwazunku who made this known while interacting with newsmen in Abakaliki, said that PDP is better off without the likes of the former senator Obinna Ogba, Laz Ogbee, Obinna Nwachukwu and few others who defected to APC in Ebonyi state.

The Chairman, Nwazunku stated further that their departure was a “good riddance” for the PDP, describing them as opportunists who had failed to empower others within the party.

He said: “Their defection has not affected the member of PDP in any guise, we held a meeting here last two weeks, one local government the turn out was massive. Having our members still remind robust, Ebonyi State is not into one party system and it can never be, it is not he who makes the largest noise that contains the best substance.

“Government is there, the question is evidentially, holy scriptures says that by their fruit you shall know them. What is the change upon which you will now claim that the people are enjoying? People vote for party that gives them dividend of democracy, what dividend are we enjoying?

“There is no change, whatever you are enjoying, whatever that is satisfying you is personal, that is the hallucination they are using to deceive the people.

“Even the so called people who defected to APC, it was in a public domain sometime, that those who primarily worked for APC sometime have not been given adequate opportunities to benefit from the government, let alone those who are defecting newly.

“So they are luring people in falsehood to put them in detention for not joining them early. Otherwise what has Ogbonna Ogba been giving as a position for where he will contribute to the good governance in Ebonyi.

“APC in Ebonyi are serving their party and they core members, they have not brought out any evidence that they are ready to serve Ebonyians. They rather using the common wealth to make their party and themselves comfortable”, he stated.
