The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Enugu North senatorial district, has passed a vote of confidence in the administration of Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi.

Members of the party in the zone said it was in recognition of Governor Ugwuanyi’s landmark performance across the three senatorial districts.

The PDP faithful disclosed that they arrived at the decision after a six-day assessment tour of the development projects embarked upon by the governor in the state, ahead of the 6th anniversary of his peaceful and people-oriented administration.

At a well-attended meeting of the party leaders and stakeholders at its zonal office in Nsukka, they said despite the economic quagmire and paucity of funds, which is confronting Ugwuanyi’s administration and the country at large, he had performed satisfactorily.

At the meeting were 102 ward chairmen of the party, six local government chairmen of the party, 17 state executive members from the zone, among others.
