The All Progressives Congress (APC) has commended its Enugu State chapter for what it described as peaceful, transparent and credible ward congresses conducted across the 260 political wards in the state.
Chairman of the APC Ward and Local Government Congresses Committee for Enugu State, Hon. Solomon Funkekeme, gave the commendation on Thursday in Enugu, expressing satisfaction with the overall conduct of party members during Wednesday’s exercise.
Funkekeme said the congresses were orderly and in strict compliance with the party’s constitution and guidelines.
He noted that the monitoring team, acting on the directive of the party’s national leadership, engaged stakeholders and supervised activities in several wards across the state.
According to him, the exercise reflected unity within the party, describing the Enugu APC as a cohesive family under the leadership of Governor Peter Mbah, who emerged as leader of the party in the state in October 2025.
He stated that the committee was impressed by the conduct of party faithful and leaders, adding that there were no reports of major disputes or irregularities.
Funkekeme also praised the level of inclusivity demonstrated during the congresses, noting that positions reserved for women were duly filled in line with gender mainstreaming principles.
He added that provisions for persons living with disabilities were equally respected, underscoring the party’s commitment to inclusiveness.
He expressed confidence that the forthcoming local government congresses scheduled to hold across the 17 local government areas of the state would be conducted in the same peaceful and credible manner.
In his remarks, the Secretary of the Enugu APC Caretaker Committee, Hon. Eugene Odoh, appreciated the national panel for its oversight role and commitment to ensuring transparency and orderliness throughout the ward congress process.
