Iyorchia Ayu, the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, claimed on Thursday that the party has turned Ebonyi State into a second London.
In Nigeria, the PDP, according to Ayu, would accomplish the same accomplishment if Atiku were to be elected president next month.
Ayu stated that Atiku and Okowa are the next president and vice president while speaking at a PDP presidential campaign rally in the state capital of Abakaliki.
The All Progressives Congress cannot take credit for accomplishments in the state, Ayu cautioned.

According to Ayu: “Atiku, Okowa just waiting to be sworn in as president and Vice President. Since Ebonyi was created, it has been a PDP state and will remain so.
“Ebonyi State has given us good governors. Abakaliki and Ebonyi State have been transformed into another London, thanks to PDP governors.
“APC can’t claim anything in Ebonyi State, Umahi was in PDP before he defected, and APC can’t claim any achievement. If you want development in Nigeria stick to PDP.
“Don’t make the mistake you made in 2015; stick with PDP and Ebonyi State will see development. APC is not a party but a small alliance that came together to deceive Nigeria.”
The state Governor, Dave Umahi, who was a member of the PDP, had defected to APC in 2022.
