Barely 24 hours after the Ebonyi State Council of
Traditional Rulers, led by Eze Charles Mpkuma, threw its weight behind the re-election
bid of President Muhammadu Buhari, the council has also ‘adopted’ and assured
former Vice President Abubakar Atiku 90 per cent of their people’s votes in the
February 16 presidential poll.
Addressing members of the Peoples Democratic Party presidential
candidate’s entourage in the Exco Chamber, the Chairman of the Council of
Traditional Rulers, Mkpuma, pointed out that although the monarchs had assured
President Buhari that he would get some votes in Ebonyi, the council would vote
overwhelmingly for all PDP candidates.
He said, “We humbly attribute the success achieved so far by
our dear governor to your great party, the PDP. Accordingly, we wish to state
unequivocally that our state, Ebonyi, is a PDP state and we shall
overwhelmingly vote for all PDP candidates. Indeed, not less than 90 per cent
of our votes, notwithstanding the fact that we had assured His Excellency, the
President that he would get some votes in Ebonyi.”
