The forum of Deputy
Chairmen of local government councils in Anambra Central Senatorial Zone has
endorsed Chief (Sir) Victor Umeh for the senate seat currently being occupied
by Senator Chris Ngige of All Progressives Congress.
Dr Ikechukwu Offorkansi, Deputy
Chairman of Awka North Local Government council and Chairman of the Forum in
the zone who briefed newsmen at the end of their monthly meeting in Awka,
stated they reached the resolution having considered the qualities of Umeh as
the National Chairman of APGA.
Also speaking, Chuks Obinweluzo from Njikoka council area called
for a stronger role for deputy chairmen as they would further make the dividends
of democracy reach the grassroots.
Obinweluzo pointed out there was need to follow the provisions
of the constitution and assign task to the deputies as most of them were not as
involved in governance as they should be due to lack of roles.
Responding, Chief Umeh thanked the deputies for their resolution
and promised not to let them down.
Umeh who was represented at the meeting by Mr. Christian
Nnadozie, promised to address the plights of the Deputy Chairmen at the party
levels, while assuring them that all members of the party would be fairly
treated.
