He commended party faithful for their loyalty to the APC and the Renewed Hope initiative and directed the LGA Coordinator, Hon. Chief Chidi Sylvester Ekeh, to proceed with the formal inauguration of the ward officials.
In his inaugural address, Hon. Ekeh described the ceremony as “a renewed call to service,” emphasizing that ward executives represent the engine room of the movement. He charged the newly inaugurated coordinators to intensify grassroots engagement and effectively communicate the vision of President under the Renewed Hope Agenda.
According to him, the coordinators will play a critical role in spreading the message of hope, progress, and national development across communities in Ngor Okpala.
Hon. Obinna Egu, PhD, member representing Ngor Okpala State Constituency in the Imo State House of Assembly, noted that the gathering also signaled early strategic preparations for 2027.
