The Executive Governor of Ebonyi State, Rt. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru, participated in the All Progressives Congress (APC) South East Consultative Meeting held earlier today in Enugu.
The meeting brought together key party leaders and stakeholders from the South East to discuss critical issues surrounding the region’s political landscape, focusing on strengthening the APC’s unity, outreach, and its strategic plans moving forward. Governor Nwifuru’s participation underscores Ebonyi State’s commitment to active engagement in political dialogues and its support for the APC’s objectives within the region.
Governor Nwifuru’s attendance at the consultative meeting also comes as the APC continues to gain traction in the South East, with significant developments taking place. A growing number of members from opposition parties, including the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and Labour Party (LP), have recently defected to the APC in various states within the region, especially in Enugu. Notable defectors include former Commissioner for Local Government, Peter Okonkwo, and Chief John Edeh, a former aspirant under the PDP in Nkanu West.
This wave of defections highlights the increasing appeal of the APC in the South East, further solidifying its position in the region as it prepares for upcoming political events and elections. The party’s continued efforts to build bridges across the South East have positioned it as a major political force in the zone.
Governor Nwifuru’s presence at the meeting reaffirms Ebonyi State’s dedication to promoting regional cohesion, economic growth, and political stability under the leadership of the APC.
