In this interview, Senator Ehigie
Uzamere told journalists why the Peoples Democratic Party deserved a
second chance in Edo State and why he decided to return to the party he
once derided. JOHN ALECHENU reports
You defected from the
Peoples Democratic Party to the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria.
Now, you say you are defecting from the ACN to the PDP. Why?
You see, the first responsibility of a
leader is to define reality; and the reality today in Edo State is that
despite all the razzmatazz and media visibility, it is an unfortunate
situation that we find ourselves in the present party and government in
the state. I make bold to say that the people of Edo South are actually a
people in bondage. And this is unacceptable. Many people see through
all the façade but lack the courage to speak up. But now, I am showing
the way and I expect my people to follow so that together, we can build
afresh. Our people have a saying, ‘if you do not enter a house, you will
never know the internal contradictions therein.’
