“Esteemed leaders, members, and faithful of the PDP in Anambra State.
“With deep humility and respect, I write to officially declare my intention to vie for the position of PDP State Chairman, Anambra State. This decision is fueled by my unwavering commitment to the values and future of our great party.
“Over the years, I have had the honor of serving the PDP in various capacities. My journey began as the State Youth Leader, where I worked diligently to promote the party’s ideals among the youth and our members at large. My dedication to the PDP also afforded me the opportunity to serve as the Personal Assistant to the then National Chairman of the PDP, where I gained invaluable experience in party leadership and administration at the highest level.

“In addition to these roles, I have had the privilege of serving our party on national assignments. I have worked on several committees, contributing to the success of PDP’s activities in Ogun, Enugu, Katsina, Nasarawa, Kebbi, Imo, Plateau, Osun and Taraba States. These responsibilities have broadened my understanding of the political landscape and helped me appreciate the unique challenges our party faces at both state and national levels.
“My public service experience extends beyond party roles. I have served as a Senior Legislative Aide in the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for 12 years, where I gained a wealth of knowledge in legislative processes, governance, and policy development. Additionally, my role as the Political and Economic Adviser to the Australian High Commission in Nigeria, and my continued consultancy for the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT)—has enriched my global political and economic perspective.
“Beyond politics, I have also demonstrated leadership in the business world. As the Managing Director of Pace Global Network Limited, I have led a company that prioritizes innovation, integrity, and results. My business success complements my political journey, equipping me with the practical leadership and administrative skills needed to steer our party towards a brighter future.
“I am also currently pursuing a PhD in Legislative Studies, further enhancing my expertise in governance and legislative matters. I believe that my academic focus, combined with my practical experiences, positions me as a strong and visionary candidate for the office of PDP State Chairman.
Barr. Chidi Chidebe continued: “My vision for the PDP in Anambra State is clear: unity, inclusiveness, and strategic growth. I am committed to working closely with all of you to ensure our party remains a beacon of hope and progress. Together, we can reinforce the PDP’s legacy and build a stronger, more united front that will lead Anambra State towards unprecedented success.

“As we approach this pivotal moment, I make a passionate appeal to each of you for your vote and endorsement of my candidacy. I humbly ask for your trust, confident that together, we can build a stronger and more resilient party that reflects the true aspirations of the people. Your support will not only be a vote for leadership but a vote for the future of our party and our beloved state.
“Thank you, and may God bless the PDP and Anambra State”,Barr. Chidi Chidebe concluded.
