Stakeholders strategize to restore Nnewi's political order

Image
 By Chuks Collins Awka  April 21,2026 Above two hundred and fifty formidable strong stakeholders on Sunday met at the residence of Chief Gabriel Chukwuma, President of Gabros Group at Uru, Umudim-Nnewi in Nnewi North Council, to chat a way forward for the industrial town. The meeting our investigations revealed was said to have been occasioned by the alleged shoddy manner the primary for the seat of the Mayor of the Nnewi North Council was conducted by the ruling All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). Recall that in the Nnewi rotational arrangement, it was the turn of Nnewichi axis to produce the next Mayor. But sadly certain individuals allegedly used their close relationship with Gov Charles Soludo to thwart the near concrete scheme of the people. This irredentist group then chose to return Eche Anazodo, from Umudim-Nnewi, a different axis. All the speakers at the meeting commended the Convener of the meeting, Chief Chukwuma for blazing the trail for the industrial town. Th...

Breaking News: Obi Holds First Strategic Meeting with ADC South East Chairmen in Enugu

Image
In a calculated show of regional alignment toward consolidating regional party structures, Peter Obi held his first inaugural meeting with the newly elected South East Chairmen of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Enugu on April 21, 2026. The gathering marks an early but deliberate move by the ADC presidential aspirant to strengthen cohesion, align leadership priorities, and deepen grassroots engagement across the South East geopolitical zone. Deliberations reportedly focused on reinforcing internal party democracy, harmonizing state-level operations, and positioning the ADC as a credible alternative within Nigeria’s evolving political landscape. Among those present were the Enugu State Chairman-elect, Prof. Uchenna Augustine Akubue, alongside counterparts from Imo, Abia, Anambra, and Ebonyi States-an assembly that underscores a coordinated regional push toward organizational discipline and strategic political consolidation.

RE: DESPERATE FALSEHOODS AND RECYCLED SMEAR CAMPAIGN AGAINST PROF. AUGUSTINE AKUBUE

Image
  Statement by ADC Youth Vanguard, Enugu State Chapter Our attention has been drawn to yet another pedestrian and intellectually hollow publication by a group desperately clutching at irrelevance, in a vain attempt to distort facts and mislead the public. This latest outburst, riddled with half-truths and deliberate mischief, only confirms what discerning observers already know-that a frustrated camp, having failed at the congress, has now resorted to scavenging through the debris of over a decade-old, long-resolved matter in a bid to manufacture controversy. It is both laughable and deeply unfortunate that individuals who parade themselves as defenders of “integrity” would descend to such depths of pettiness-digging up a settled issue from 2013, which has since been subjected to judicial scrutiny, resolved, and conclusively laid to rest. To attempt to repackage a matter that was not only clarified but also extinguished through due legal process, as though it were a fresh indictmen...

Image
  In every defining moment of history, a people are confronted with a choice - to remain within the comfort of the familiar, or to summon the courage to embrace a future shaped by visionary leadership. Today, the Enugu North Senatorial Zone stands at such a crossroads.

MOTHER’S DAY COVENANT OF HOPE: A Message to the Resilient Women of Enugu State from Engr. Dr. Chris Okonkwo

Image
... To the Pillars of our Homes and the Soul of our State On this sacred Sunday, April 19, 2026, as the Catholic faithful and the entire nation pause to honor the incomparable essence of motherhood, I reach out to you not just as an aspirant, but as a son who understands the weight of the crown you wear. Motherhood is often described as a journey of love, but in our beloved Enugu State today, that journey has been fraught with unmerited struggle. I see you. I see the quiet strength you exert when the taps run dry and the search for water becomes a daily battle for survival. I feel the anxiety that grips your hearts as skyrocketing rents threaten the sanctity of your homes and the stability of your families.  Most painfully, I am aware of the silent cries in our healthcare centers the difficulties you face in accessing quality maternal and reproductive care, and the sense of abandonment when a government that is supposed to protect your interests looks the other way. It often seems ...
