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.”
