Ekwunife said, “I want to thank in a special way, Dr Chris Ngige, who bought a senatorial nomination form for me.”
She added that she was poised to reclaim her mandate which was stolen from her by the Nigeria Judiciary and handed over to Senator Victor Umeh, who is the current senator representing the area.
She said, “Senator Uche Ekwunife stands for every party, it is more about the personality I represent, and not party. You can see Governor Ugwuanyi( of PDP) here, so it is not about APC. We will reclaim our mandate.”
Ekwunife while speaking with journalists commended Ngige for being so thoughtful, as a leader of the party in the state.

She said, “Ngige is the leader of the party, he needed to direct the party aright, that was why he bought and gave me the form to fill.
“It is not about party this time, but about the right person, and I am the right person for that seat. Umeh said he was going there to roar like a lion, but we are yet to even see him bark like a dog.
“He has not provided the needed leadership in the Senate, and we are going to take back the position from him.
The event was attended by members of the APC from all states of the south-east, including clergymen, led by Bishop Paulinus Ezeokafor; Catholic Bishop of Awka diocese.
