The PDP National Scribe further recalled the invaluable contributions of the people of South East in nation building, expressing optimism that the zone would be the pride of the nation.

He called on Nigerian leaders and critical stakeholders to join hands with other ambassadors of good governance to condemn the obvious suppression of democratic ethos against the Igbo and proffers urgent solution.

Meanwhile, a leading political pressure group in Imo State, Divine Mandate Movement (DMM), Tuesday took over the venue of the South East Zonal Stakeholders meeting convened at the instance of Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar in Enugu.

The group led by the Chairman, Evang Myke Ikoku and the Director General, Hon Ngozi Ogbu respectively were seen positioned in strategic areas to ensure the event was a huge success.
