From Chijioke Agwu, Abakaliki
One of the foremost founding fathers of Ebonyi State, Chief Felix Mgbada, at the weekend endorsed the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Ifeanyi Odii, as the best candidate to succeed Governor David Umahi.
At a press conference in Abakaliki, Chief Mgbada, who is also a member of the PDP Board of Trustees, said he had studied all the candidates aspiring to governor Ebonyi State but came to the conclusion that Ifeanyi Odii is the best of them all.
He noted that Odii had built over 130 houses for indigent families across the three senatorial zones of the state as a businessman stressing that if given opportunity to govern the state he would do more for the people.
He called on the leaders and members of the party to team up with Odii to liberate the state.
He said: “Having gone through very tedious democratic processes, from pre-primaries, primaries and Court cases up to the Supreme Court and emerging victorious, I wish to formally congratulate the PDP governorship candidate in Ebonyi State, Dr Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii, for surmounting all hurdles to clinch the ticket.
“There is no gainsaying the fact that Dr Odii had built up his name, capacity and enviable antecedent which prepared him to provide leadership for the people of Ebonyi state.
