Umahi: advises APC to Adopt a zoning formula.

Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State has advised the leadership of the APC to adopt a zoning formula for the emergence of leaders of the 10th National Assembly. The Governor gave the advice in Abuja while speaking to State House correspondents after closing doors with President Buhari.

He noted that doing so would ensure equity and balance of power among the country’s geopolitical zones. “I am a party man and very committed to a decent process. The party and the President-elect directed that we shouldn’t talk about that yet, but we should all go back and work for the gubernatorial and Houses of Assembly elections.

“But I believe strongly that zoning must be done by the party. It should not allow everybody to jump into the race, and when the time comes for zoning, they must look at all the parameters to carry every region along. This is very important”, he said.

Commenting on the chances of the APC in the forthcoming governorship election in the southeast, the Governor expressed optimism that the APC would do well.

“I would first like to analyse my state, although we will have an election there, out of the five in the region. Governorship elections will be held in Abia, Ebonyi and Enugu; the other two are off-season, but there will be House of Assembly elections in all five states.

“In my state, I have nothing to worry about because I think God has done the work for me. Our candidate will emerge no matter how desperate the opposition wants to thrive. “First and foremost, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has already announced that there is no gubernatorial candidate for the Labour Party in Ebonyi.

“But even if a candidate was standing for election, he is no match to the candidate of the APC, so I am very sure that we are going to win”, Umahi stressed.
