Ihedioha rallied<br \/>\npraised delegates for their perseverance, orderly and peaceful conduct<br \/>\nthat led to a successful primary that has been adjudged by all as free,<br \/>\nfair and transparent.<br \/>\nHe enjoined those who contested for the governorship ticket with him to<br \/>\nput the interest of the party and work together to achieve victory for the<br \/>\nPDP in the coming general elections, promising to \u201crun a vibrant, open,<br \/>\ninclusive and issue based Campaign. A Campaign that will have the input of<br \/>\nall our Stakeholders. A Campaign that will accommodate all interests and<br \/>\ntendencies within the PDP family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The statement reads: \u201cI wish to convey my sincere appreciation and thanks<br \/>\nto the great and indefatigable delegates that participated in the PDP<br \/>\nGovernorship Election Primaries which was held on 8 December 2014 at<br \/>\nOwerri. In particular I doff my hat to the 346 delegates who cast their<br \/>\nvotes for me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is as a result of your trust and confidence in me that I was elected<br \/>\nas the PDP Governorship flag bearer in the 2015 General Election. Most<br \/>\nworthy delegates, I was present with you throughout the long hours of<br \/>\naccreditation, voting, counting, and Declaration of the Results. It was<br \/>\nthe most painstaking, thorough, transparent and credible primary election<br \/>\never conducted in the history of primary elections of any political party<br \/>\nin Imo State.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou, the delegates, endured the long hours, the pushing and shoving, the<br \/>\nheat of the Sun, lack of water and food inside the stadium. You defied<br \/>\nintimidation and strong arm tactics employed by some aspirants, to cast<br \/>\nyour votes. For all these I will remain always indebted and committed to<br \/>\nyou.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow that I have been elected, I have become the Candidate of all<br \/>\ndelegates. I have become the Candidate of all PDP Members. I have become<br \/>\nthe Candidate of all the Aspirants. In a political contest of this nature<br \/>\nonly one person will be returned as winner. But we are all winners, as I<br \/>\nintend to run a vibrant, open, inclusive and issue based Campaign. A<br \/>\nCampaign that will have the input of all our Stakeholders. A Campaign that<br \/>\nwill accommodate all interests and tendencies within the PDP family.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccordingly , I appeal to all my brothers and sister who contested with<br \/>\nme, all the delegates, PDP members and all indigenes of Imo in all walks<br \/>\nof life to rally behind me and all other PDP Candidates for various<br \/>\npositions, towards ensuring that the party records wide-ranging and<br \/>\nresounding victory in Imo State in 2015 General Elections<br \/>\n\u201cIt is time for all of us to unite and forge ahead together as a people<br \/>\nwith a common destiny. It is only as one big family that we can achieve<br \/>\nthe desire of the long suffering people of Imo State for emancipation from<br \/>\nthe poverty and the enthronement of a truly modern Peoples\u2019 Government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt.
