The PDP U3 Executive Empowerment and Leadership Summit was held at the PDP Secretariat in Otor-Udu, Udu LGA. At the event, Comrade Kenairu Johnbull, Acting PDP Udu Chairman welcomed PDP members, particularly executives from Ughelli North, South & Udu LGAs. He expressed gratitude to the convener, Dr. Olotu Otemu Akpodiete JP, for his empowerment program, which has significantly benefited women leaders across U3. Johnbull urged PDP members in the Federal Constituency to work together in preparation for the 2027 elections.
Also speaking at the event, Olorogun Godwin Akpokemerha, the Acting LGA Chairman of Ughelli South, advised PDP members to remain committed and steadfast in their support for the party as they prepare for the 2027 elections.
Dr. Olotu Otemu Akpodiete JP, a former House of Representatives aspirant, praised the leaders and executives of the Ughelli/Udu Federal Constituency for their unwavering commitment to the party despite its challenges. He urged Deltans to support PDP in the upcoming elections, emphasizing that the party is the right platform for emerging leaders to take control of their destiny and implement policies that benefit the people. Akpodiete warned Deltans against unstable politicians who have abandoned the party, questioning how they could decamp from PDP and still seek to contest elections or control the party as external forces.
In his vote of thanks, Hon. Daniel Emaye commended the convener for empowering and appreciating U3 executives for their commitment to the party. Despite the defection of some members, Emaye expressed confidence that the people are still with PDP and that the party will emerge victorious in 2027.
