The All Progressives Congress (APC), Ebonyi chapter, says the visit today of the party’s National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun to Ebonyi, will strengthen the party in the state ahead of 2019 election.
Acting Chairman of APC in Ebonyi, Mr Eze Nwachukwu, said party members were in high spirit in expectation of Chief Odigie-Oyegun as they hope to expand the membership base of the party.
He explained that the party in the state would use the gains of the visit to cement and consolidate on the existing peace and unity in the party.
“Many members who have been seeing the chairman on television want to see him live, touch him, embrace him and shake hands with him.
“We will meet him one on one and discuss our challenges and see how he can use his good office to assist us and ensure that all our efforts are strengthened toward taking over power in the state in 2019.
“Our joy over the visit has no limit because the visit will not only cement and consolidate the existing peace and unity in our great party, it will also expand the membership of the party, ahead of 2019.
The APC chief said that Oyegun would personally register some of the high profile former members of Ebonyi PDP who decamped to the party, led by the immediate past governor of the state, Chief Martin Elechi.
