Hon Chimezie thanked Dr Nwokeabia for his leadership qualitaty that has brought peace and stability in the party within such a short time which had made LP the toast of the people of Enugu State.
There were other dignitaries, who spoke at the event before the host Dr John Nwokeabia stood up to address the audience.
Nwokeabia noted that he was happy that Awgu labour party faithful came to pay him a solidarity visit and used the occasion to remind them that the reason labour party came on board was because of the shortchange by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He said that after 24 years in power, the PDP could not point out their major achievements which gave Enugu people a reason to try a new party with a genuine change mantra.
According to him, LP came with a new mantra of how they could change the fortunes of the people and was accepted with the manner they came out enmass to vote for the labour Party.
He further urged the labour Party faithful in both in Awgu and entire Enugu State to continue in prayers for the Judgement for the Governorship to be in tandem with the wishes of the masses.
