Imo ADC Inaugurates LGA Executive at State Headquarters, Reaffirms Commitment to Grassroots Renewal

In a bold stride towards deepening its organisational presence and strengthening its grassroots structures, the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Imo State Chapter, has formally inaugurated its newly constituted Local Government Area (LGA) executives across the state. The epochal event, held at the party’s state headquarters in New Owerri, was presided over by the State Chairman, Prof. James Okoroma, and graced by members of the State Working Committee (SWC), party stalwarts, and a broad spectrum of stakeholders.

Addressing the newly sworn-in executives, Prof. Okoroma urged them to approach their assignments not merely as political appointments but as a solemn call to public service – a sacred mandate to fortify the grassroots foundations upon which the ADC’s enduring vision rests. He reminded them that the ADC is more than a political platform; it is a people-centred movement founded on the timeless principles of discipline, transparency, inclusiveness, and an unyielding commitment to the welfare of all.

“The future of our party rests squarely on the loyalty, resilience, and vision of leaders at the grassroots,” Okoroma declared. “You are not just executive members; you are the living faces and frontline ambassadors of the ADC in your various LGAs. We expect from you dedication, synergy, and an unalloyed faith in the mission and ideals that define our movement.”

The day’s proceedings also featured the inauguration of the Okigwe Zonal Leadership, with Hon. Obinwanne Onwujuba sworn in as Zonal Chairman and Hon. (Sir) Chimax Onuoha as Zonal Secretary. Both leaders, in their acceptance remarks, pledged absolute loyalty to the party’s vision and assured stakeholders of their readiness to galvanise support, deepen grassroots mobilisation, and expand ADC’s influence across the zonal and ward structures.

The inauguration ceremony drew an impressive turnout of party faithful, stakeholders, and supporters from every corner of Imo State. Many described the exercise as a defining moment in the ADC’s ongoing evolution – a decisive step towards consolidating its institutional strength and positioning itself as a credible and people-oriented alternative in the state’s dynamic political arena.

Bringing the event to a close, Prof. Okoroma reaffirmed the unflinching resolve of the ADC to provide responsible leadership and purposeful governance, underscoring that the party remains deeply committed to the values of unity, service, and sustainable progress in Imo State.
