The Enugu State Government played host to a gathering of governors and party leaders from the Peoples Democratic Party Governors’ Forum, according to a statement by Governor Peter Mbah on X.com on Wednesday.
The gathering, which took place on Tuesday evening, featured a cultural night, where the guests were treated to a display of traditional cuisine, music, and dance.
The event was a precursor to a meeting aimed at crafting strategies to move the party and nation forward.
The host governor, in his statement, expressed his pleasure at welcoming his “brother governors” and party leaders to Enugu, stating that it was an honour to host them.
He wrote, “I had the pleasure of welcoming my brother governors of the #OfficialPDPNig Governors’ Forum and party leaders to Enugu, Tuesday evening as well as treating them to a cultural night ahead of our meeting where we are to craft strategies to move our party and nation forward.
“We count it an honour to host them. As Chinua Achebe rightly pointed out, a man who calls his kinsmen to a feast does not do so to save them from starving. They all have food in their own homes. ”
“Again, when we gather together in the moonlit village square, it is not because of the moon. Every man can see it in his own compound. According to Achebe, we come together because it is good for kinsmen to do so. Deje nu. Nnoo nu.”
