Former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Emeka Ihedioha has advised the All Progressives Congress (APC) to prepare for an excruciating defeat at the hands of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the South East in 2023.
Ihedioha, who is a former Governor of Imo State, said that the ruling APC has misused the opportunity to provide good leadership at all levels and will be punished with rejection by the electorate.
He stated this on Friday as a guest on Channels Television‘s Sunrise Daily.
“The South-East people are respected across the globe. We have the best professionals in Europe and America, in various spheres of endeavour, be it in medicine, technology, engineering, science and arts, in law.

“In this country, we have shown that we lead the way in commerce. It is important that we are given the right atmosphere, the right climate to excel, to showcase our individual capacities and that is why we look for good governance.
“And that is what the APC has failed to give (South-East) so it is easy to dismiss the APC in the South-East,” Ihedioha said.
He assured that the crisis in the PDP would be resolved through its internal conflict resolution mechanism.
Ihedioha stated that the presidential candidate of the party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has begun the process of finding lasting solutions to the crisis.
“We will get over this situation. Disagreements are normal in every home, in every family and so deliberate steps were being taken as a party. Calmly, we are resolving issues and by the time we come to the election, PDP will have put all its houses in order.
“I believe discussions and consultations are going on at various levels. I am very certain Knowing Atiku Abubakar very well, our issues will be resolved and the PDP Will give Nigerians the government they desire,” Ihedioha said.
