All Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders and aspirants in the forthcoming Local Government elections in Aboh Mbaise LGA were on Tuesday, August 20, 2024, hosted by notable APC chieftain, Dr Ugorji O.

Ugorji echoed his earlier remarks, at a high-level meeting between Aboh Mbaise stakeholders and Governor Hope Uzodimma in November 2023, highlighting the two categories of public servants and their inherent values as either those who enter public service to see what they can get, or those who come to give.

On his stewardship to Imo State, Ugorji, who served as Governor Uzodimma’s pioneer Commissioner for Homeland Security and Vigilante Affairs, stated: “All I have ever done in Aboh Mbaise is give.”

Pointing to the regrouping of APC’s political adversaries in Aboh Mbaise, Dr. Ugorji said that the APC needed to be even stronger and more cohesive as 2027 approaches. He opined that internal party democracy will be critical in party building and cohesion, and offered to continue being a unifying figure for the party in the local government and Mbaise Nation in general.
