The communiqué was signed by stakeholders across the region, including Hon. Chidiebere Darlington Anyanwu (CHYDON), Comrade Eze Oko Splendour, Hon. Dr. Ezeh Emmanuel Ezeh, Chief Edozie Ezeugwa, Hon. Chuks A. Okolo, Deacon Chuka Solomon Obaego, and several state party chairmen.
The stakeholders also expressed support for the party’s national leadership.
According to the communiqué, the group acknowledged the contributions of Governor Otti and Deputy Governor Emetu to the party and indicated support for their continued roles.
They also expressed support for the National Chairman, Nenadi Usman, and the National Secretary, Darlington Nwokocha, ahead of the party’s forthcoming national convention.
On zoning within the National Working Committee (NWC), the group said positions allocated to the South-East should be distributed among states in the zone.
