Serving As APC Servant, The Only Way To Get Igbo Presidency – Senator Utazi
Senator Chukwuka Utazi who represented Enugu North District in the 9th Senate under the PDP platform, has said that Igbos can only achieve their presidential ambition only if they can serve as servants at the APC.
Utazi made this assertion when he was formerly being received into the APC on Saturday, March 30, during a meeting of the party leaders in Enugu state.
Recall that he had in October 2023, resigned his membership with the PDP on the grounds that the ideals that attracted him to the PDP have gone into oblivion.
In his words at the reception,
“Today is a special day in my political career. As a national politician, I want to join politics at the centre. What we are doing in Enugu cannot take Enugu anywhere. I resigned from PDP. Nothing is coming to Enugu. If you are not at the centre, you are failing,”.
“The only way to get Igbo presidency is to serve as a servant at the APC. I want to serve in the party. APC is the only way to join the mainstream nationally. We will ensure that (other PDP) members join the party (APC). With the party discipline, we will go far,” the former senator stated.
While receiving the defectors into the APC, the Deputy National Chairperson, South, of the party, Emma Eneukwu, said:
“It is a new beginning for the party in 2027. We need more people (from the PDP). The South-east must take their place in Nigeria. Igbo presidency is long overdue,”.
