… Declares To Run For Umuahia South State Constituency Seat
Hon. Chief Emmanuel Egwu (Esere-Ebekwuodike), on 23rd April 2022, officially joined All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and equally declared his intention to contest for Abia State House of Assembly, Umuahia South State Constituency, under the platform of APGA.
Egwu who made this known at his residence in Ekenobisi asserted that it is his time to represent the people of Umuahia South.
He recalled how he ran for the same position under the People’s Democratic Party PDP and lost out in 2019, saying that it wasn’t his time then.
According to him, he is fully prepared to run for the same position because it is a clear directive, approved by God.
He decried the ruling People’s Democratic Party ‘PDP’ in the state for the suffering Abians are experiencing and asserted that that was the reason he left the party, even as the “umbrella” is shaking and would soon turn upside down.
“PDP is shaking and I can’t stay in a shaking party”
