The UP governorship candidate in the 2019 governorship election in Imo state Comrade Henry Chinaemerem Nwaiwu have decamped to APGA thereby drumming support for Chief Charles Onyirimba.

Comrade Henry Nwaiwu has called on all his former party members and supporters to support and vote Chief Onyirimba who is the senatorial candidate of APGA IN IMO NORTH (OKIGWE ZONE) in the forthcoming senatorial election.

It will be recalled that the electoral umpire had declared the Okigwe seat in the senate vacant following the death of the former Senator, Distinguished Senator Ben Uwajumogu.

Declaring his support for Onyirimba, the Amaraku born politician and the youngest Gubernatorial candidate in Imo said that he decided to join APGA BECAUSE he considered it so important to do so especially now that the party is in the rebuilding stage.

He further said that the party is the only party that can give and deliver the dividends of democracy to the masses at all levels especially Okigwe zone.

Comrade Nwaiwu further stated that Chief Charles Onyirimba’s intention to represent the zone at the red chamber gingered him to join the party having considered his antecedents, unquestionable credentials, his background and his readiness to represent the zone well.

Responding to his defection to the APGA, the ward chairman Mr. Onyekachi Iwuozor said that they have been longing to have him in the party, he therefore assured Comrade Nwaiwu of the party’s readiness to carry all defectors along at the ward level.

In his conclusion, Comr. Henry Nwaiwu said that he will surely work for the party to earn victory in 2023 especially during the Okigwe Senatorial Election. He also thanked the state chairman Chief John Iwuala JP for restoring the glory of the party hitherto.
