Former Enugu State Labour Party governorship candidate in the 2023 general election, Hon. Chijioke Edeoga, has pledged his full commitment to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) following his return to the party.
During a courtesy visit to Governor Peter Mbah at the Government House in Enugu on Wednesday, Edeoga emphasized the need to focus on governance, acknowledging that the people had made their choice in the last election.
Edeoga was accompanied by key PDP leaders, including the state chairman, Dr. Martin Chukwunwike; Vice Chairman, Chief Steve Oruruo; Secretary, Hon. Chukwudi Nnadozie; and Woman Leader, Hon. Princess Peace-Patrick Nnaji, among others.
Edeoga, who officially rejoined the PDP on March 31, 2025, commended Governor Mbah for facilitating the process, describing it as a significant step in the political history of Enugu State.
He noted that the time for division was over and that his return was a bold move toward fostering unity, peace, and progress in the state’s governance and political sphere.
Governor Mbah, in response, welcomed Edeoga, reaffirming that he would be treated equally with all PDP members.
He highlighted ongoing national efforts to strengthen the party, citing the establishment of a peace and reconciliation committee aimed at reintegrating former members and fostering party unity.
