A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Enugu State, on Thursday, elected Hon Dona Nwogbo as it’s governorship candidate for the 2027 election.

Returning officer for the election in the state, Dr. Yarima Idachaba, who announced the results of the primary elections that included the national and state assembly positions expressed satisfaction in the turnout of the elections without violence.

The State Chairman of the party, Hon. Steve Oruruo, said the process was the culmination of direct primaries held across wards in the state. He described the exercise as “glamorous” and a reflection of the quality the PDP seeks to present.
