“I feel a sense of fulfillment today, l feel a sense of intense happiness. Yesterday l received former governor Martins Elechi of Ebonyi State and today you, (Wabara) are here.’’
In his remarks, the former Abia state governor expressed his delight over the spate of defection into the APC by former chieftains of the main opposition party.
“Now my spirit can now be at peace as far as the South East is concerned. The true leaders of South East know that it is important to be a major player in the Nigeria nation; and the true leaders of South East know that they are part of the building blocks of Nigeria.”
“When I joined the party, I promised to fish out men that can work for this party in Nigeria, not only in the South East.
“Today, we are here with a great Abian, a Nigerian who is a big asset to this great party. We have assured you what we will do in that zone in 2019 and I am sure you have started seeing the handwork and hand writing on the wall. We are consulting widely in our zone and beyond.’’
