The leadership of the women’s wing of the Enugu State Progressive Group has pledged to promote good governance in the state.
The political pressure body was founded by the immediate past chairman of the Enugu State All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr Ben Nwoye.
The group made the pledge during its official inauguration held in Enugu.
The women’s body, operating under the headship of the 2023 APC House of Representatives candidate for Udenu/Igbo Eze North federal constituency, Dr Promise Oby Ajih, said its membership cuts across the political divide.
Ajih, who is the pioneer state coordinator of the group, explained that PWG is not a political party, but rather a civic force aimed at influencing and promoting good governance from outside traditional party lines.
At the inauguration of the state executive and local government areas’ coordinators weekend in Enugu, Ajih averred that their mission is to promote good governance, support progressive administration benefiting Enugu people and drive development, adding that PWG is for women of like minds.
She emphasised that they are disposed to supporting all well-meaning citizens of Enugu state who are excelling in various spheres of human endeavours. However, “It’s open to all Enugu women, irrespective of party affiliation.
