Be courageous to save PDP, Ikpeazu challenges BoT

Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State has said if the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) must win the 2023 presidential elections, the party must muster sufficient courage to go the whole hog.

He, therefore, pledged to assist the Board of Trustees (BoT) in resolving subsisting problems.

Ikpeazu gave the assurance while welcoming the BoT members, led by its new acting chairman and former Senate President, Senator Adolphus Wabara, who called on him at his Umuobiakwa country home.

He said there must be genuine reconciliation and truth if the party must rise above the current challenges confronting it, praying that the party would know the variables that have changed and respond to them accordingly.

The governor stressed that PDP must remain angry and hungry for power, adding that the party must correct the mistakes that made it lose the election in 2015.

According to Ikpeazu, it is better for the party not to wash its dirty linens outside, maintaining that the PDP has the capacity to solve the problems internally.

To this end, he enjoined the BoT to review events dispassionately with the hope that it would rise to the occasion.
