Speaking to journalists after his swearing-in at the APC National Secretariat, the Enugu APC Caretaker Chairman, Dr Ben Nwoye, said Mr. Mbah would join the ruling party with several lawmakers and key leaders across the state.
The APC National Chairman, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, and the Deputy National Chairman (South), Emma Eneukwu, while inaugurating a seven-member caretaker committee for the party in Enugu, revealed that efforts were underway to strengthen the APC’s presence and influence in the South-East.
The APC National Chairman, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda informed members of the caretaker committee that he was aware they would need to rebuild the party in the state.
