March 15, (THEWILL) – Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi and former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Anyim Pius Anyim, have mended fences.

The Governor and the former Senate President exchanged banters following his defection to the APC, but the two political gladiators in Ebonyi have buried their differences.
Umahi and Anyim reconciled over the governorship position and the former SGF has reportedly endorsed Umahi’s preferred candidate, Chief Francis Nwifuru of the APC, for the position
Umahi will be leading a delegation to Anyim’s residence in Ishiagu, Ivo Local Government Area of the State, on Wednesday, for a town hall meeting for Anyim and the people of the Local Government to officially adopt Nwifuru for this Saturday’s governorship election.
