2023: Any person that’ll not vote Peter Obi is not genuine Igbo man — Eze

The governorship candidate of Labour Party (LP), in Ebonyi State for the 2023 general election, Mr. Splendour Eze, yesterday stated that any person that will not vote Dr. Peter Obi in next year’s election was not a genuine Igbo man.

Eze, who emerged as the Governorship candidate of Labour Party on Thursday evening after the Party’s primary election, that took place along Old Enugu road, opposite Grand Arena, Abakaliki, noted that it was time for Ndigbo to rally round Dr. Obi for the realisation of a Presidency of Igbo extraction.

The primary election which was conducted on a consensus bases, saw the emergence of various candidates for the three Senatorial seats, six House of Representatives seats and 24 house of Assembly seats of the State.

Delivering his acceptance speech, Eze explained that the emergence of Dr. Peter Obi as the presidential candidate of the Party was a divine arrangement that benefit the nation as a whole.

“Labour Party is an Igbo political party. Any Igbo man that votes another party is not a genuine Igbo man. We are sick and tired of manipulation and marginalization on all fronts.

“LP will win both Presidential, Governorship, the three Senatorial seats, 24 House of Assembly elections. We are not leaving any stone unturned. We are tired of wrappers and other items given to us during electioneering campaigns.

“It’s a divine arrangement for Peter Obi to be the presidential candidate of LP. He wants the country to move from consumption to production country. In China, virtually everywhere you go, production is taking place,” he said.

He admonished the candidates of the Party to take their election seriously as LP was strategically positioned to win the 2023 general election in Ebonyi State without any stress.  (Vanguard)
