Baring any last minute change, the South East Zonal Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) will on the 30th of April organize a welcome rally to officially receive all those who recently defected to the party.

The rally will also avail the leadership of the party in the region the opportunity to unveil and commission its newly built secretariat in Enugu.

The All Progressives Congress has in the past one year gained a number of notable politicians, thus the need for the zonal rally, which will officially welcome them into the progressives fold.

The rally, which is billed to hold at the Michael Okpara Square, Enugu will be a sort of  statement of intent to show other regions that the South East is indeed now an APC stronghold and is more than ready to contribute its own quota to the party.

Under the leadership of Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State, the APC has sought to become the beautiful bride of Ndigbo.

While leveraging on the high number of infrastructural projects carried out by the President Muhammadu Buhari administration, the South East APC has been mobilizing massively within the region to position the party for future elections such as the forthcoming guber elections in Anambra and the 2023 general elections.

The efforts of Senator Ken Nnamani, a former Senate President and South East representative at the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee is also one that deserves immense commendation as such his untiring efforts have also gotten the party the much needed results because the former Senate President has left no stone unturned in his quest to win more converts into the party’s fold.

The rally will also have in attendance the leadership of the Caretaker Committee of the APC and Governor of Yobe State, Alhaji Mai Mala Buni and other members of the Caretaker commitee.
