Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) delegates from Awgu Council of Enugu State have assured Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of their loyalty, solidarity and support ahead of the forthcoming party primary in the state.

They added that they would also stand behind whoever the governor would ask them to support during the primary elections. 

Speaking, the leader of the delegation and Chairman of Awgu Council, Pedro Nwankwo said: “We have come to let you know that wherever you ask us to stand is where we will stand. We are behind you.

“We are also solidly behind whoever you shall ask us to support or vote for during the primary elections. All we are waiting for is for you to speak and once you do so, we will act.”

Chairman of PDP in Awgu Council, Oke Udeh said: “We are here to inform you and assure you that we are behind you.”

We will always stand by you and we have no reason whatsoever not to know that you are the governor of Enugu State.
