By Onyekachi Eze
The Special Adviser to Imo State Governor, and immediate past Interim Management Committee Chairman of Oru East Council Area, Nze Nyerere Ogbonna has rolled out drums in celebration of the landslide victory of the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, for Oru East Assembly polls, Hon Chigozie Nwaneri.
Hon Nwaneri who is the incumbent Lawmaker representing Oru East at the State Legislature defeated his opponents on Saturday to emerge the Member-elect for 2023-2027.
He is on the journey for second tenure as the first ranking House Member Oru East has had in the history of the Area.
Sending his goodwill message to the parliamentarian, Nze Ogbonna described his Victory as Divine Will and the Will of ndi Oru East.
He attributed the winning to the APC’s impacts in the governance of the State which the people felt should continue.
Ogbonna lauded Nwaneri for his resilience and penchant for giving in his best as a State Lawmaker.
He expressed optimism that his second tenure will usher in more dividends of democracy to Oru East constituents, and to Imo State at large through people oriented bills and motions.
Relatively, he was astonished that Nwaneri could break the long aged jinx of returning to the State Legislature for second time, pointing out that in the annals of Oru East, no one has gone twice, but once.
To this end, he charged him to see the opportunity as a clarion call to put in more work to the greater service and representation of the people.
However, Nze Ogbonna boasted that with APC’s overall victory in just concluded Assembly polls, he was sure of Governor Hope Uzodimma’s victory later this year.
The Awo Omamma born Leader tipped Uzodimma as the best Governor Imo has had, under whose watch human, capital and infrastructural developments were made manifest.
He asked other aspirants jostling for the governorship seat to relinquish ambition and support the governor for the continuation of the good job he started in Imo State.
“The victory of APC in the recent elections are signs of more good things to come. It’s only when a party through their elected persons do well that they will get the people’s trust and mandate to continue. The Assembly election in Imo will be replicated in November 2023”.
