The All Progressives Congress (APC) has elected Mr. Obiorah Igwedibia as its chairman and other executives in Anambra State at the congress held at the Women Development Centre in Awka, the state capital.
APC conducted a fresh ward, local
government congresses last week following the controversy that trailed
the congresses last month.
The APC congress committee was headed by
Prince Otis Robinson as chairman with Dr. Aminu Ahmed as the secretary
of the seven-member congress committee of APC in the state.
Speaking with journalists after the
congress, the Secretary of the Anambra Congress Committee, Dr. Ahmed
Aminu said all the 1,122 delegates voted from the 21 local government
Areas and 326 wards in the state.
Apart from the chairmanship position,
all the executive members were elected unopposed, which had two
contestants, Barrister Igwedibia and Dr. Igwilo Sylvester.
According to Ahmed, each of the 326
wards produced five delegates including the council chairman of the
party and secretary including statutory delegates from the National
Assembly.
Other officers of the party in the state
elected included deputy Chairman, Rev. Achukwu, state secretary, Nestor
Okoro; Publicity secretary, CT Albert; legal Adviser, Barrister
Nwadiuba, and the state treasure, Eddy Nwokike, among others.
The new state chairman of APC, Igwedibia commended all APC members in
the state for their cooperation. He said he decided to contest the
chairmanship of the party because APC needed to work assiduously to
achieve a kind of party that needed to compete with the other party.CULLED FROM CHANNELS
