Speaking last week in Owerri, Chief Osueke, said that contrary to media reports that, the PDP is battling  for supremacy, what is currently going on in the party is a healthy development where qualified members contest for control of the soul of the party as one of the largest political parties in Africa.

Also, expressing hope that the party will bounce back to power in 2019, given harsh economic policies by the APC-led government at the centre, under President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Rochas Okorocha in Imo State, Osueke posited that, pre-election opinion poll by the people indicated failure for the PDP government ahead of 2011, even as he added that such situation shall repeat itself on the side of the APC-government in 2019.
