Aka na eme eze as he is fondly called appreciated Ekwunife for projecting the party through her excellent and all inclusive representation in the Senate.
While acknowledging Ekwunife as a politician who can be trusted to deliver when it matters, Uzodike reiterated the need for the PDP to present a candidate who is acceptable to the generality of Ndi Anambra.
On her part, the Igbo-Ukwu born Senator lauded Chief Uzodike who is also a respected stakeholder of the Peoples Democratic Party for his unwavering commitment towards the growth and development of the party in the state. She described him as a long time friend and ally, expressing confidence that the former commissioner will partner with her as she seeks to end the perennial absence of the party from power in the state.
