Dr. Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu Meets NLC President Joe Ajaero in Abuja as #ImoEast2027 Consultations Continue

Dr. Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, former First Lady of Ondo State and senatorial aspirant for Imo East, has held a consultation meeting with Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) President, Comrade Joe Ajaero, as she ramps up engagements ahead of the 2027 elections.

The meeting took place in Abuja on Wednesday during what Anyanwu-Akeredolu described as part of her ongoing consultations for the Imo East Senatorial District race, tagged #ImoEast2027.

Describing Ajaero as her “broda” and fellow son of Owerri Zone, Anyanwu-Akeredolu said the visit was to pay homage and discuss issues affecting the zone and the wider state.

“Our discussion centered on the need for purposeful leadership, quality representation, and the urgent task of improving the welfare of our people,” she stated.

She added that the “journey to the Red Chambers continues with wide consultations and engagement with critical stakeholders.”

Anyanwu-Akeredolu, who hails from Owerri Federal Constituency, signed off the statement as “Ada Owere 1,” a traditional title she holds in Owerri.

The visit adds to a series of consultations she has been holding with political and civic leaders as she seeks the support of stakeholders in Imo East ahead of the 2027 senatorial election.

Imo East, also known as Owerri Senatorial District, comprises nine local government areas and is considered one of the key political battlegrounds in Imo State.
