The Chairman of Nkanu West Local Government Area of Enugu State, Hon. John Ogbodo, has congratulated the newly elected Enugu State Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Dr. Martin Chukwunwike, describing his emergence as a reflection of unity and renewed strength within the party.
Speaking with newsmen on Tuesday, Ogbodo said the peaceful and transparent conduct of the ward, local government, and state congresses across Enugu State demonstrated the growing cohesion and organisational capacity of the APC.
He also commended Governor Peter Ndubuisi Mbah for what he termed visionary and inclusive leadership, noting that the governor’s role as leader of the party in the state was instrumental to the smooth and credible exercise.
According to Ogbodo, the successful congresses have repositioned the APC in Enugu for greater political engagement and electoral competitiveness ahead of future contests.
“The seamless conduct of the congress across the 17 local government areas and 260 wards is a clear indication that the party is united and focused. It reflects the maturity of our internal democracy and the confidence members repose in the leadership of Governor Mbah,” he said.
The council chairman further expressed confidence in the capacity of the new state executive under Chukwunwike to consolidate the gains of the congress and strengthen the party’s grassroots mobilisation efforts.
He urged party faithful across the state to rally behind the new leadership, stressing that unity and discipline remain critical to achieving the APC’s broader political objectives.
Ogbodo assured that stakeholders in Nkanu West would continue to support initiatives aimed at deepening internal democracy, expanding membership, and positioning the party for greater success in subsequent elections.
