Ifedi Okwenna in Nnewi North, Commends the Return of Peace in the Party as Nonso Amanchukwu becomes new Chairman

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governorship Aspirant, Dr. Ifedi Okwenna has commended the return of peace in PDP Nnewi North Local Government. He urged party members to work hard to ensure the comprehensive victory of the Party in the Local Government, at the forthcoming Anambra State Governorship election on November 6, this year.

The former Commissioner for Environment, Mineral Resources,Science and Technology, made this declaration during his unscheduled vist to the Local Government Party Secretariat last Saturday. Dr Okwenna commended the leadership provided by the former PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metu, who is the leader of the Party in the Local Government. He said that the return of Olisa Metu and the quick leadership abilities he deployed has resulted in the election of Nonso Amanchukwu, as the substantive Local Government Chairman of the Party, to complete, the unfinished tenure of the former Chairman Oko Echendu, who died last year. The Ugwumba Osumenyi thanked Olisa Metu, the Stakeholders and leaders of the Party in Nnewi North, for the matured way they resolved the intractable problem of leadership in the Local Government PDP.

Dr. Okwenna also commended the the former Acting Chairman Ernest Ajaero Anaefobi, for his humility in complying with the decisions of the Party leadership. “Ernest, for your humility, honesty and not becoming overtly ambitious and power hungry, you will go places. Sky shall remain your starting point”. Dr Okwenna concluded.

Nnewi North Local Government PDP has been enmeshed in leadership supremacy squabbles due to the inability of the contending forces to agree on who becomes the new Chairman, following the death of the former Chairman, Oko Echendu, last year. The return of Olisa Metu has thus facilitated the resolution of the crises and the return of peace to the Party.
