The newly inaugurated National Secretary of the people’s Democratic Party, Sen.Samuel Anyanwu has maintained that the people of Owerri zone believes in Equity, fairness and Justice and urged political leaders and stakeholders of the State to decisions that would engender political arrangement guarantees such principles for the peace and development of the state.
The Senator who represented Imo East ( Owerri) zone in the 8th Senate made these comments at the weekend during the commenoration of the 4th Anniversary of the EGBU Declaration.
Anyanwu commended the organisers from Owerri zone in particular and Imo people general for taking such a bold step aimed at ensuring political equity and Justice in 2023.
He noted that the Egbu declaration is the expression of people’s firm belief in equity, justice, and fairness for good governance in the state.
According to him, ‘when injustice, lack of equity and fair play are the order of the day in a state supposedly owned by the entire Imo people, the quest for good governance becomes a mirage’
He maintained that until Owerri zone is allowed to be at par in the governance of the state like her Orlu and Okigwe zone counterparts, the message of unity being chorused will be viewed as deceitful and meaningless.
The PDP Chieftain, therefore, appealed to political leaders and stakeholders in the state to take decision that will guarantee equity, justice and fairness in the political arrangements of the state, stressing that such decisions will engender socio-economic development and inter-zonal cooperations.
He urged Imo people to join the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), maintaining that the party remains the only credible alternative that can guarantee political freedom in the state, South East, and Nigeria in general.
