Following the assessment tour of the Imo State Peoples Democratic Party PDP, the Njaba LGA chapter has in earnest kick started in positive reaction to the reformation of the party in the area.
This move was made possible by a Chieftain of the party, the former Executive Chairman of the LGA, Hon Chief (Dr) Eddy Ikwubuo (Agunechemba 1 of Njaba) who made a cash donation of One Million Naira (NIm) to kick start the building of a new PDP secretariat in Njaba and a donated new giant generating set to power the old rented secretariat.
He further reiterated that the PDP in Njaba needs urgent reformation and transformation urging other Leaders/Stakeholders of the party to support the move and the party.
He eulogized the Interim Management Committee Chairman, Hon Obodosha Agwubuo and his members as well as the LGA party administration for their good performance so far and urged them to do more for the party and the good people of Njaba.
Agunechemba while commending the state party leadership for stearing the party towards a successful 2019 general election, also called on Njaba people to always support the government of Rt Hon Emeka Ihedioha and his “Rebuild Imo” agenda which according to him has started yielding dividends of democracy for Imolites.
Bar Chief RA Okoro (Homeland), a BOT Chairman for Orluzurumere in his remark called for synergy between leaders of the party in the LGA and PDP stakeholders so as to move the party forward.
He however urged all Njaba indigenes regardless of party affiliation to support the rebuild Imo agenda of Gov Emeka Ihedioha which he noted is actually the true rescue mission for Imolites.
Earlier in his statement, the state organizing secretary, Hon. Nze Law Biaduo pointed out the reason for the visit which is to assess the State and functionality of the Party Secretariat in the LGA. He emphasized on the need for a functional and well equipped office, for the party so as to remain relevant, and ensure that party programmes and activities are efficiently carried out at the LGA.
Hon. Emma Dike while contributing emphasized on the need to ensure that there is effective cooperation and collaboration between the members on one hand and between the Party and the Ihedioha administration. This according to Hon.
