“Joining the party at the centre will enable the Southeast leaders to manage the welfare and trust of their people better.

“The Southeast has suffered a great deal of marginalization. The Southeast has been excluded in many things, the reason being that Nigeria is practising partisan democracy, and once you are with the ruling party, there are some advantages you will get outside those who are not in that party. This is no longer a secret.

“As a result, the Southeast wants to be part of the party at the centre, so that we can get both our rights and privileges.”
