The Executive Governor of Ebonyi state, David Umahi has said that the recent Labour Party’s early superb rallies across the country cannot guarantee victory for Peter Obi in the 2023 presidential election.
Umahi who also was an All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential aspirant said his party will soon commence its rallies and mobilisation nationwide.
The Ebonyi state governor is the South-East Chairman of the APC presidential campaign.
He said there are still many months for campaigns before the presidential election and there is no cause for panic about the deferred inauguration of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.
Umahi said this on Monday October 3rd, 2022 when he featured as a guest on a Channels TV programme.
He said this in his reaction to questions on the massive rallies of Obi’s supporters popularly known as ‘Obidients.’
In his words, “We have many months to elections and we have many months to campaign. The first to start does not translate to the first to finish. So, the APC is a bank and they are coming up with programmes. It will soon happen.
Speaking on what he meant by that APC is a bank, the governor clarified that the ruling party is a bank “in terms of mass mobilisation, in terms of acceptability.”
Recall that APC had published a 422-man Presidential Campaign Council list and slated inauguration for September 28 but postponed it indefinitely.
