Erondu Erondu Jnr., the All Progressives Congress, APC, flagbearer for Abia South Senatorial District in the 2027 general elections, has commended party members following his victory in the party’s just concluded primaries.
Recall that Erondu secured 15,982 votes to defeat Anyim Nyerere, Blessing Nwagba, and Paul Ikonne in the APC Abia South senatorial primaries.
Reacting after receiving his Certificate of Return at the APC Secretariat on Thursday night, Erondu described the contest as keenly contested, emphasising that there was “no victor and no vanquished.”
According to him, the outcome reflects the unity within the APC, which he described as one big family working toward a common goal.
He noted that Nyerere, Nwagba, and Ikonne remain his brothers and sister, united by the shared vision of transforming the lives of the people of Abia South.
Erondu said his wealth of experience from years of service in various government capacities has given him a clear understanding of the expectations attached to the office of a senator. He expressed confidence in securing victory in the 2027 general election.
He stressed the need to change the old order, assuring the people that if elected senator for Abia South, no community or individual would be left behind in the district’s development.
While acknowledging the contributions of previous representatives of Abia South, Erondu said it was time for a new approach.
He also expressed optimism about contesting against Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, noting that he has committed the entire journey into God’s hands.
The politician, fondly called the “Empowerment Master,” said representation is about bringing the dividends of democracy closer to the people. He added that public service and empowerment are familiar terrain for him, and promised to make the people of Abia South proud if elected senator.
Erondu further commended Abia APC for conducting peaceful, free, fair, and credible primaries. He called on party members who did not secure tickets to remain committed and work together for the progress of the party, while thanking his supporters for their steadfast encouragement and belief in his vision.
