With the first term of incumbent PDP National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, soon to end, it is not yet clear if he will show interest in re-election. However, there are some forces within the party battling for and against his re-election.in an interview that what was most important to him was devolution of power from the central government to federating units.George was born on November 21, 1945.
The PDP chieftain said, “So much is still at stake until the zoning is done . They may zone it or decide to change zoning, but at my age, I don’t want to start running around. As for the party, anybody they want to put there must be somebody of good standing, not just some ambitious, inconsiderate person.
