— CALLS ON NJABA APC LEADERS TO CLOSE RANKS, STRENGTHEN INTERNAL UNITY AND SHORE UP SUPPORT FOR THE PARTY AHEAD OF 2027
The All Progressives Congress (APC) State Working Committee’s 2026 campaign and assessment tour of Njaba Local Government Area, held yesterday, witnessed the prominent participation of Hon. Chief Cosmas Nwabueze Maduba, [ODEBUBE], and his NINN Project 2027 Campaign Team, as the party intensified its grassroots engagements and organisational preparations ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The strategic visit, led by the Imo State APC Chairman, Hon. Chief Austin Onyedebelu, brought together party leaders, stakeholders, ward executives and grassroots members for an assessment of the party’s preparedness, internal coordination and mobilisation structures across the local government.
Chief Odebube’s presence and that of his campaign team formed a notable feature of the engagement, which also provided an opportunity for the party’s state leadership to interact with stakeholders and strengthen the relationship between the party hierarchy and its grassroots structures.
A major highlight of the visit was the official presentation of the APC flag to Chief Cosmas Maduba by the State Chairman ably represented by the Orlu Zonal Chairman, Hon. Frank Onyejiaka recognising him as the party’s Standard Bearer for the Nkwerre/Isu/Njaba/Nwangele Federal Constituency ahead of the 2027 National Assembly elections.
The presentation, which was part of the State Working Committee’s activities during its tour of the constituency, further brought attention to the party’s preparations and the political engagements surrounding the forthcoming electoral cycle.
Speaking during the engagement, Chief Maduba reaffirmed his commitment to providing the people of the constituency with transformative representation anchored on effective legislative engagement, responsive leadership and purposeful constituency development.
He maintained that his bid was driven by the determination to establish a stronger connection between the people and the National Assembly, ensuring that their collective interests, developmental concerns and legitimate expectations receive adequate attention.
He also highlighted the Charter of Equity principle as a major consideration in his emergence as the party’s standard bearer, describing equitable distribution of political opportunities, power and resources as important ingredients for fairness, inclusion and political stability within the constituency.
*CHIEF ODEBUBE CHARGES NJABA APC LEADERS ON UNITY AND RECONCILIATION*
Beyond the formal presentation of the party flag, Chief Odebube used the occasion to make a strong appeal for unity, reconciliation and renewed cooperation among APC leaders and stakeholders in Njaba.
He called on party chieftains, ward leaders, former and serving political office holders, support group coordinators and other stakeholders to close ranks, put aside personal differences and work collectively towards strengthening the party’s structures.
According to him, the success of the party’s preparations for 2027 requires a united political family, where divergent interests can be accommodated through dialogue, mutual respect and a shared commitment to the collective objectives of the APC.
He emphasised that internal disagreements should not be allowed to weaken the party’s organisational capacity, urging stakeholders to prioritise reconciliation and constructive engagement over individual political considerations.
The federal constituency hopeful further encouraged party members to intensify grassroots interactions, maintain effective communication across the wards and ensure that every segment of the party remains actively involved in the ongoing political process.
His message centred on the need for a stronger, more inclusive and better-coordinated APC structure in Njaba, capable of sustaining meaningful engagement with the people ahead of the 2027 elections.
*NINN PROJECT 2027 TEAM REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO GRASSROOTS ENGAGEMENT*
The participation of the NINN Project 2027 Campaign Team at the Njaba turn of the SWC tour further demonstrated its involvement in the ongoing political activities and stakeholder engagements across Nkwerre, Isu, Njaba and Nwangele.
The team accompanied its principal throughout the exercise, reinforcing its commitment to party participation, political communication, grassroots mobilisation and the promotion of constructive relationships among stakeholders.
The engagement also offered an opportunity to reinforce the importance of collaboration between the party’s state leadership, local government executives and grassroots structures as the APC continues its internal assessment and mobilisation activities.
Yesterday’s outing in Njaba thus formed another significant chapter in the 2026 APC SWC Campaign Tour, bringing the party’s leadership closer to its grassroots base while providing a platform for Chief Odebube to reiterate his vision of effective representation and appeal for greater political unity within the constituency.
As the 2027 general elections approach, the call for reconciliation, collective responsibility and sustained grassroots participation remains central to the political conversations emerging from the party’s engagements across the four local government areas.
Political strength is not built on individual ambition, but on collective unity, mutual trust and a shared commitment to the people. When we close ranks, strengthen our structures and put the party above personal interests, victory becomes a collective responsibility
