NNPP Endorses PDP's Odii for Ebonyi Governorship Race
The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has officially stepped aside from the 2027 governorship race in Ebonyi State, endorsing Chief Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as their preferred candidate. This announcement was made by NNPP State Chairman Chief Ifeanyi Ojeogu in Abakaliki, where he led party leaders and members to the PDP secretariat to declare their support for Odii.
Ojeogu cited Odii's track record and his impactful contributions during the 2023 elections as key reasons for this decision. He emphasized that Odii is the most credible candidate to challenge the ruling APC-led administration.
Chief Mark Onu, Youth President of the Odii Support Group, welcomed the endorsement and assured that incoming NNPP members would be treated equally within the PDP. Onu also addressed concerns regarding the political climate, urging NNPP members to remain steadfast despite perceived threats from the APC-led administration.
Political observers view this endorsement as a significant boost for the PDP's campaign ahead of the 2027 elections.
