Senator Hope Uzodinma, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, Senator Gil Nnaji, the
host, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, among others.

Addressing newsmen shortly after the closed door-meeting, the group’s
spokesman who is also the National Vice Chairman of PDP South East,
Col. Augustine Akobundu (retd), said they were resolute in remaining in
the party and not contemplating defecting to other political parties.

His words:

“Everything that we need to do to
deliver the goodies that our people deserve in the zone, we can bring
through a very solid platform of negotiation.
‘’We voted for a party that integrated us into the mainstream
of Nigerian politics, elected/appointed our people into strategic
offices, and addressed some of our major infrastructural challenges. So,
we took a principled position and accept full responsibility for our
political choices.”
