APC will free Nigerians from political slavery - Udenwa

From ROSE Nmeka, Orlu
Udenwa
A former governor of Imo state, Chief Achike Udenwa has boasted that the All Progressives Congress (APC) will free Nigerians from political slavery which they have long been subjected to.
Udenwa who stated this during a get together of the party stake holders held recently in his country home, Amaifeke in Orlu local government area of Imo state, appealed to the people of Orlu zone to embrace the party.
He stressed that the time is ripe for Ndigbo to play politics of relevance to enable them get power at all levels of governance, adding that they should discard the insinuation that APC is Hausa/Yoruba party and not for the people of Eastern states.
While urging them to ensure that they come out enmasse and register with the new party during registration period, the former Governor emphatically stated that APC is the only party in Nigeria that can deliver the dividends of democracy to the grassroots going by its antecedents in the country.
According to him, it is only APC that can free them from political slavery which they have long been subjected to, pointing out that the party has come to stay, no matter the propaganda and unfounded rumours about the party.
Udenwa went on to say that the essence of the formation of the party is to ensure that they get power at all levels, especially at the grassroots.
On Igbo presidency, the soft spoken former Imo Chief executive opined that it is very possible but that they should work hard to actualize it in no distant time.
He said that the Igbos should not fold their hands waiting for the position to come to them but should strategize on how to join forces with other ethnic groups to achieve it.
In their separate speeches, Dr Vincent Udokwu, former Chief of Staff to the Governor and Commissioner for Health and Engineer Nwaizu former Executive Chairman of Orlu local government area harped on the need for the people of Orlu and entire Imo state to embrace the APC in their own interest.
