And PDP was already formidable and winning elections. His decision to leave after many years of benefiting from the PDP and to pursue his personal ambitions cannot impact the party negatively,\u201d said Ugochukwu Adilieje, the PDP coordinator in Anaocha council area, where Mr Obi hails from.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeter Obi never consulted his political family before his decision to leave; for him, it was his personal ambition, and such cannot be binding on us all as we have our own personal ambition, which is for PDP to win in next year\u2019s election and in other elections,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Adilieje asked his party members not to be afraid of candidates from other political parties, maintaining that the PDP members would support the party\u2019s presidential candidate, Mr Atiku, and other candidates of the party to win in next year\u2019s polls.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cOur mandate is Atiku, and we will crush anyone standing in our way. We cannot allow our people to continue to be victims of emotions and sentiments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are members of the PDP and must own up to our party and its presidential candidate and ensure that he wins in our local government area and state. Peter Obi is only popular on social media and not in Anaocha (Council Area).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Rallies will not influence voters\u2019<br \/>\nSince he emerged as the LP candidate, Mr Obi has been enjoying an increased following which later dovetailed into rallies usually organised by his supporters, otherwise known as Obidients.<\/p>\n<p>But Mr Adilieje dismissed the rallies, saying such would not have an effect on voters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnyone can organise a rally that every Tom Dickinson and Harry Potter will attend, but on the day of the election, the real voters will cast their votes accordingly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>A former PDP governorship aspirant in Anambra State, Obiora Okonkwo, was recently appointed director of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) of the PDP in the state.<\/p>\n<p>Chuma Ezeafurukwe, the coordinator of the party in Aguata council area of the state, said the appointment of Mr Okonkwo, a professor, as the party\u2019s PCC director in Anambra State had rejuvenated the PDP in the state.<\/p>\n<p>He said the party was confident of winning in the council area and state in 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Anaocha Local Government Area of Anambra State have \u201crejected\u201d the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, ahead of the 2023 general election.
