Umahi explained: “There is no other political party in Ebonyi State.
“We have done quite well and no other political party in Ebonyi can boast of any reason why anybody in Ebonyi should vote for such party other than APC.

“They are going to be listening to promises fulfilled under my administration and as the party of APC.
“I have worked hard for it.
“Apostle Paul says: I have run the race; I have kept the faith, and left for me is the crown of righteousness.
“That crown of righteousness is a comprehensive victory today.”
