OJI—All Progressive Congress, APC, chieftain, Chief Iyke Kenechukwu, has described recent changes in the nation’s political landscape as a divine mandate that will help the country move forward.
Addressing stakeholders in Oji River Local Government Area of Enugu State, Kenechukwu urged the people of the area to embrace the party to be rescued from years of neglect by the successive administrations who he noted refused to address many challenges the masses face, such as infrastructural decay, unemployment and poor health facilities.
Kenechukwu, a Lagos-based businessman, also used the occasion to congratulate the APC South East zonal leader, Owelle Rochas Okorocha for his foresight and doggedness in winning the last governorship election in Imo State.
He further gave Kudos to Enugu State Chairman of the party, Ben Nwoye and the party chairman in Oji-River, Chief Benson Eze for their outstanding leadership in piloting the affairs of the party, as he used the opportunity to congratulate the President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, who he noted would bring about the change the country deserves.
